Description: The Ulysses Grant Peace plates (circa 1888) were made by Gillinder & Sons to commemorate the death of Ulysses S Grant. The peace plates are pressed glass using the maple leaf design around the rim of the plates. Around the outer rim of the plate are the words: "Let Us Have Peace - U.S. Grant". A portrait of Grant is in the center of the plate and the words: "Born April 27, 1822 Died July 23, 1885".
Manufacturer: Gillinder & Sons; Greensburg, PA
Condition: We have 3 blue plates. One of the plates has no chips or flakes. The other 2 plates have small chips on the underside of the maple leaves along the rim. One plate has a medium size chip on one of the leaves. The maple leaf pattern helps to hide the imperfections.
Price quoted is for the plate in excellent condition. We will sell the 2 other plates for 10% less.
