Product Details

The 'Liberty Blue' ironstone pattern was produced by the Midwinter pottery in Staffordshire, England, specifically for the United States Bicentennial celebrations. Introduced in the 1970s, the set featured historical American scenes on each piece, drawing inspiration from traditional 19th-century blue and white transferware. Sales of the collection were heavily promoted through grocery store promotions and mail-order catalogs, making it a ubiquitous feature in many American households during the late 20th century. While marketed as a commemorative collectible, the immense production volume means these pieces remain readily available today rather than rare antiques.
