Comments: |
From the Collection of Mark Rogers. Super straight sides on this tray - no flaring that is normal with most 12" trays. As a result this tray is difficult to stack with other trays. E-C mfg mark of 11/36 indicates 1936 production date. |

From the Collection of Mark Rogers. A Philadelphia expert has noted that the label on the bottle on the tray is one of the last ones used by Hohenadel. This helps with the dating. |
