A charming group of New York World\'s Fair souvenirs from The American Potter exhibit — a collaborative display by Homer Laughlin and rival potteries where ceramics were made on-site at the fairgrounds.
Included are two miniature toby-style face mugs, approximately 2\" tall each.
The 1939 piece is unglazed bisque with a woman\'s portrait and handle; no chips.
The 1940 piece is glazed ivory with a man\'s portrait (sailor/Washington style); two small chips.
Both marked \"The American Potter / New York World Fair / [Year]\" on the base.
Also included are two original wrapped \"Worlds Fair Minted Picks\" toothpicks — a rare piece of fair food service ephemera.
