“The Harvest molds were created in the 1950’s. The Harvest molds are extensive. They include a whole dinnerware line. \u00a0There are dinner plates, salad plates, bread and butter plates, cups, saucers, goblets, large ice tea tumblers, mid-size tumblers, juice tumblers, large serving platter, salt and pepper shakers, covered butter dish, sugar\/creamer\/tray set, covered and uncovered wedding bowls, a three piece canister set, lace edge spooners both covered and uncovered, water pitcher, cake stand, \u00a0snack sets, sherbet set, \u00a0punch set, candle holders, large and small vases, compotes and more.<\/p>\n

The Harvest molds were first used to produce beautiful snowy white, handmade milk glass items. \u00a0The milk glass items were called Colony Harvest. \u00a0Colony is a trademark of the Lancaster Colony Corporation. Indiana Glass produced the milk glass Harvest items but they were never sold under the Indiana Glass name.<\/div>\n

Indiana Glass continued to produce the milk glass Harvest items through out the 1950’s and 1960’s. \u00a0The “Colony Harvest” pattern was obtained most often through the redemption of S & H green stamps in the midwestern states. You received a stamp for each $1.00 you spent and when a book of 300 or so was filled, you could redeem it for merchandise. \u00a0Colony Harvest was a very popular pattern and soon there was a need to increase production to meet the demand. \u00a0Some of the more popular Harvest molds were adapted to machine use.”<\/div>\n
