Just missed the war US Zone

Guys,

Not quite within boundries but I have a similar war time pattern dish somewhere.

Just found it interesting that often it was 'carry on normal jogging' under new management.

jock auld, "U.S.Z" means Us zone?
Cheers, Simon.
Note, I've just read the title of this thread, and now feel very stupid for asking this question. It is late, and I have been awake since very early this morning

Simon,

Yes, sometimes it is in full ie US - Zone or abreviated to USZ.

You can see it on a lot of the stien topf mugs and plates etc that were used in the American Mess halls but they are identical to the war time German item.

Jock,
Is there a big market for Us zone marked items from this era?
Regards, Simon.

Simon,

I don't think so at the moment unless it is from a well known pottery firm then it will have its normal colectable value.

It is a period of history that is gone though so maybe in the future there may be interest.

I only picked it up as a curiosity.
