Child's Dishes
This set of china is a small tea set for children to play with. There are also two pewter castors.
These items belonged to my mother, Lillie Strahl Cardinal, and date back to her childhood in the 1880's. I do not know exactly how or when she got them, but they were among her prized possessions.
