NILON Brothers Plate ~ PA Catering Co. ~ Laughlin 1973

Nilon Brothers, a catering company, was at one time the nation's leading concessionaire, according to information found on the web. They were located at 3rd & Caldwell in Chester, PA and catered many small functions in the area. Later on the company had the concession at one of the zoos in PA as well as many other places. Nilon Brothers also patented a method for rapidly dispensing beer into open cups.

Homer Laughlin manufactured these plates in 1973. The 7 1/4 inch plates feature Nilon Brothers in black script with a matching black band surrounding the scalloped edge. Each plate is in near mint condition and appears almost unused, with just a few scuffs in the well. No chips, cracks or hairlines.
