  • University of Michigan was added sometime around 2010 and pattern number 9305.
  • It was produced on Sunflower and can be found in the following pieces:  bread tray (0412), classic rim luncheon plate (0465), classic rim chop plate (0467), medium oval platter (0457), jumbo mug (0149), and small disc pitcher (0485).
  • There is a possibility that Sunflower classic rim dinner plates (0466) and large oval platters (0458) were produced as well.   We just haven’t been able to get concrete verification yet.  
  • Thank you to Nick Soto for the use of his photo.
  • For the University of Michigan collection only one of the logos  was used.  However, two different logos and three different glazes were tested.  (see below)
  • Like Notre Dame they preferred to keep their own inventory and did not do online sales through Touchdown Tableware.

  • From my research, it appears that White was the first option for the University of Michigan’s collection. It’s original project number is H-15761.  
  • It was tested / sampled on a classic rim dinner plate (0466), classic rim chop plate (0467), jumbo mug (0149) and bread tray (0412).  All these are illustrated above.
  • Thank you to Patricia Antion for the use of her photos. 
  • The second color to be tested / sampled appears to have been Sunflower.  It’s project number is H-15761-1. 
  • This glaze color was chosen to be used by the university.

  • The third color to be tested / sampled was Cobalt using two different logos as illustrated above.  
  • The center photo with  “Michigan” laid over the “M” would have been the third version.  It’s project number is H-15761-2.  It was tested / sampled in the following pieces:  small disc pitcher (0485), classic rim dinner plate (0466), classic rim chop plate (0467) and jumbo mug (0149). 
  • The left and right photos with just the “M” logo was the fourth version.  It’s project number is H-15761-3.  
  • It was tested / sampled in the following pieces: bread tray (0412), classic rim dinner plate (0466), small disc pitcher (0485), classic rim chop plate (0467) and jumbo mug (0149).
  • Thank you to Patricia Antion for the use of her photos.
