Colonial homes are complemented by Fostoria'j "American"
crystal. Modern homes like it, too. And gift lists minus ''American"
seem neglected.
For "American" is an authentic reproduction of that traditional
design which marked the cozy simplicity of early New England
life. Indeed, no crystal pattern is more exquisitely beautiful or so
moderately priced . . . none with a more romantic past or such a
brilliant future.
We have innumerable "American" pieces for your selection.
Some of these are as little as 50c each. Or a complete dinner service
is available, perfectly satisfactory for serving all kinds of hot foods
and drinks.
We invite you to see our Fostoria Displays in the Crystal Shop
