Label TextThese glass dishes are examples of Depression Glass. Some glassware made between 1929-1939 is given this name, referring to its mass-produced, low-cost nature. These pieces of glassware were sometimes included in food packaging, as an incentive for purchase or given out for free during the Great Depression. This glass typically comes in translucent pink, yellow, green, and blue, making it a popular item for collectors.
