Completely surrounded by interesting places. Great video too [your son who was interested in filmmaking apparently comes by it naturally]. You know, when I was born, my maternal grandmother gave me a "kiddie place setting" of dinnerware made of melamine [or SOME kind of very hard, very firm plastic - not flexible like Tupperware at all]. It was a nice medium gray, which according to Mom was a pretty huge color in the 50s. There was a small plate, a cereal bowl and a small handled cup - and it was marked "Boon" on the back, made in New Jersey. I wonder if it could be an offshoot business of this family? I often see vintage pieces from this company on Etsy. My sibs and I all used the place setting when we were babies/toddlers, but my Mom gave it to me when I left for college. I literally toasted the plate - SO dumb - when I used it in the microwave, not thinking that MAYBE plasticware from the 50s would not be microwave-safe, and it cracked in half. I have no idea what might have happened to the cup, which I used in college as a "toothbrush" cup. All I have now is the little cereal bowl. I came across it going through boxes when moving into my current apartment. I got the idea to clean it with BonAmi, which brightened it and removed surface scratches. So now it looks nearly brand-new and has a new life, holding bar soap in my bathroom. I do wonder whether the Boon connection is there though...💛Janet Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04754470262654502312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2504150188395321059.post-32836474687762608682016-07-13T10:24:01.031-04:002016-07-13T10:24:01.031-04:00What beautiful music accompanies the video!
