Ye Olde Ivy Paper Label

This trademark is a paper label which was applied to items with YE OLDE IVY etching. The IYY etching was done on stemware and serving pieces, mainly in the Tally-Ho line. It was advertised in China, Glass and Lamps in June, 1935 with Maddock and Millers’ dinner service with IVY decoration. The IVY etching appears to have been of fairly limited production, therefore, there is very little information to aid in establishing usage dates for our label. In addition to the advertising, the presence of the tri-c-20.jpg (846 bytes) is our only other dating aid. As established in discussion of general line labels, usage of the tri-c-20.jpg (846 bytes) was discontinued at the end of 1937. Speculation is that this would also apply to other labels. This yields a date range of 1935-1937. YE OLDE IVY label is approximately 1/2" by 1 1/8" with a green background.
