Of Special Note:
This 75+ year old vintage USCG CoastGuard china gravyboat was hand crafted, hand glazed, hand dipped, handstenciled, and they just don't make it like they used to!
Unfortunately, the US Coast Guard discontinued this time honored tradition ofissuing this beautiful vintage china in the mid-1960's after the manufacturer'ssupplies ran out, and it was never replaced. This further makes Coast Guardchina a great investment! Currently only small quantities of this fine chinacan be found. The gravy Boat is seldom seen!
Its is great shape please look closely at the photos the only flaw I see is the center of the back side of the gravy boat has a manufacturers flaw that looks like a tiny 1/2" hairline crack.
