Someone once helped me out with a great link for Fiesta, but when I reinstalled Windows, I lost it. I'd appreciate having it again. Went to the Towpath in Peninsula Ohio today only to be rained out. On the way back home we stopped at a yard sale. It was late in the day and the woman was starting to pack up. Here's my latest $10 find:
I think it's an old one, but I want to be sure. So, the day was not lost afterall!

Cheryl, I dont have any links but isnt it great to find something when you least expect it?
I bought a canon printer at a yard sale a few weeks back. Lady told me it worked but she couldnt find the AC/DC cord for it. Yesterday on my way home I stopped at sale. It looked like mostly junk and I was wondering if I should even bother to get out of the car...but lo and behold a canon AD-300 adapter for .25!! Boy was I a happy kid over that.

You were obviously meant to have that printer! I was just shocked that no one had grabbed this pitcher the whole day. I guess when you are way out into the country, no one pays attention. Either that or they all have these things handed down in their farm houses. Boy wouldn't I love to go through one of those farm houses sometime! It also could be because we've had so much nasty weather that people just weren't out at the yard sales as much! There were downed trees everywhere.

The Cobalt Disc Pitcher was re-introduced in 1986. It is slightly darker than the original. The debossed Fiesta mark on the bottom is very similar to the old mark.
That said, the pristine condition of the white base on yours would make me suspicious.

The base is not that white. There is wear and dirt. I had to lighten the photo to show the mark. Otherwise you would not be able to see it.

Nice FIND, Cheryl!!!
We also went to Peninsula towpath, only to find all of the 'closed' trails and park areas because of this awful weather ... heck I bet you and we drove right past each other ..... did you notice there were NO empty parking spaces at either restaurant? ... even that big parking area in the block behind Winking Lizard was blocked off due to storm damage ... still was a nice day for a jaunt ... got an ice cream cone but didn't stop at any yard sales, but I guess we SHOULD have! ... nice find, cheryl, ...nice find.

Hey, Marcia, we ate at your favorite restaurant in Peninsula today! It was around 2:30, 3:00. They have the best barbeque pork sandwiches I ever ate. I think we should meet up there for lunch! We'll eat on the patio. I want to try the Chocolate Covered Banana drink!

Chocolate covered banana drink??? I'm almost afraid to ask.
