AT&SF (Santa Fe) Railway Mimbreno Double Handled Bouillon Cup

This is an extremely nice bouillon cup in the "Mimbreno" pattern, the white version. I is in near mint condition, no chips, cracks, or flea bites. It is back stamped, "Syracuse China, 98-K (date code 1969), Made Expressly for Santa Fe Dining Car Service." The double handled bouillon cup is 3 3/4" in diameter, and 2 1/4" tall. Mimbreno railroad china was used on the Santa Fe Super Chief from 1937 to 1971. It was designed by Mary Elizabeth Jane Colter, a Harvey System employee. She was given the commission to design china based on the concept of the Membres Indians. Her resultant designs are widely collected to this day. A great addition to make to your railroad dining car china collection!
