Abstract
In the early 1940s, my grandmother Marcia Howard loved visiting Vi Turk for dinner. Vi and her husband had recently moved to Sharon, Pennsylvania, where he was employed as a Westinghouse engineer. Marcia's parents befriended the Turk family, and Marcia would often be found at their home around mealtime. Not only was Vi a good cook, she also had special dishes for her little guest's use. My grandmother still vividly recalls the excitement of choosing her very own dinner plate from a colorful array known in the 1930s and '40s as Fiesta dinnerware.
