  • The million-dollar question now is … was this actually produced in Evergreen or just sampled / tested.
  • Touchdown Tableware advertised on their website an Evergreen chop plate and an Evergreen “Combo Set”, which consisted of the chop plate, relish/utility tray and a salt / pepper set.  However, when talking with Patricia Antion (the brains behind this endeavor) her nor her husband Bob could remember selling these sets.  But keep in mind, these may have been sold almost 20 years ago.
