Pitcher, Cream

One small cream pitcher from the dining room of the bulk carrier, Philip D. Block, of the Inland Steel Company. The pitcher is made of heavyweight, glazed china of a bone/ivory color. It has an open top with a short spout, a rounded top edge, and a tall curved handle that has a flat thumb rest and a narrow red stripe on the outside. It has curved sides that flare outward to form a rounded bottom with a flat circular base. A narrow red stripe encircles the outside top edge of the rim and a narrow gray stripe is located about 3/8" beneath it. A red diamond-shaped company emblem, which shows the name, "Inland," in bone/ivory-colored text, is stamped below the stripes on one side of the pitcher. The underside is stamped with black text that reads "Albert Pick Co., Inc., Chicago," and "Vitrified China, 35."
