    Yes, Melmac. Blanking on the name of the brand right now but it’s either Arrowhead or Brook something. I have HUNDREDS of pieces of this. I love square Melmac.

    OK this one I know. Melmac yes. I have the color series from the early 50’s in dark green, burgundy, gray and chartreuse. By the mid 50’s the colors were pink and black and I think Howard Johnson colors. Not sure if there were other colors, or when production ended.
    “Arrowhead” Ever Ware is marked on the bottom of the cups, made by Brookpark, Cleveland Oh. marked on plates.
    Buried deep in a past post, is a photo of my melmac which we use daily. The rule is, never put it in to the microwave, cut on it, and never scour the surface. Just use diluted bleach to remove stains like coffee.
    Jealous for having hundreds of pieces. Do you use them???

      That’s it, Brookpark! And yes, I use Melmac constantly. They hold up in the dishwasher but NO microwave. I also have a few sets of Melmac with patterns on them, my favorite ones being a rooster set and a cow set.

      Denny, thanks for snapping these cups. My heart goes pitter pat for this melmac style.
