The Dish Patch Newsletter on Montgomery Ward, Eggshell Ads written by Jo Cunningham and Darlene Nossaman.

Published by Robbins Nest

From a 1948-49 Fall and Winter Montgomery Ward catalog: "This is a special ware, lighter in weight than regular Semi-Porcelain, yet actually stronger and more resistant to chipping and crackling.  This is because "Eggshell" contains Tremolite, a mineral ingredient which makes it lighter but stronger...characteristics usually associated only with China.  Note delicate shading of colors in each pattern; classic shapes.  As with all Wards dinnerware, this is triple-selected, your assurance of First Quality ware.  Open stock."
