From my dusty files on the company, Taylor, Smith & Taylor made a wide range of plain and painted semi-porcelain wares, for example, dinnerware, hotel and restaurant ware, and toilet sets. Lu-Ray, introduced in 1930, Pebbleford, and Vistosa are three of the company’s most popular dinnerware shapes. In the 1960s, a line of cooking and oven ware was produced. Special commission work ranged from dinnerware premiums for Mother’s Oats to Gigi and Holly Hobby plates for the American Greeting Corporation. Anchor Hocking purchased Taylor, Smith & Taylor in 1973. Anchor Hocking ended production at the former plant in 1982. Sadly not much in the way of value, might go for $25.00 as a box lot at auction.
