Oldsmobile dishes for sale
hi guys not sure where this should go but cleaning out -
I have a ton of old Oldsmobile dishes, GM glasses, GM Mens Club glasses - if any interest let me know - these allegedly came from Oldsmobile Corporate Office Executive Dining room - the story is that they were rescued from the dumpster when Oldsmobile HQ was cleaned out
would like to sell it all as one lot, was thinking $300 but will do individual place settings if need be - want them to go to a good home (or homes)

PM sent. I already have a dinner and a salad plate, but always interested in Oldsmobile ephemera like this.
I bought a GM Cafeteria place setting at Carlisle a couple years back- 70s with the blue GM logo. Then found 2 more deeper in the swap meet. My bud says "You gonna get 'em?"
No, because one is a display. Three means I gotta find a fourth so as to have a service.

thanks for all the interest guys - all PMs received and replied - I will dig this out this weekend and count it up - looks like 11 full sets (5 pc set of dinner plate, salad plate, dessert plate, coffee cup and saucer) + some strays (a mug here and there, the GM glasses, the GMMC glasses)
I was thinking $30 per 5 piece set
I need to count up the glassware as well - lots broke when they originally sent it from Lansing

Tell you what- since I already have a dinner and a salad plate, I'll defer to someone wanting a full place setting so everyone can have a chance at the dishes. Now, if some of the deals don't follow thru, I'm still interested.
And you were thinking this stuff might be hard to move.

16 old Olds logo dining plates
How did you eventually end up selling these? And for how much, if you don't mind me asking.
I've got 8 dessert or bread plates and 8 larger salad or dinner plates with a very old Oldsmobile logo on them and they need to find a good home or homes. They came from the corp office dining room in the 1950s in, I believe, Dearborn, Mich. The logo is the old planet with a ring and the Olds name.
Let me know what ended up happening with your Olds plates. If people here are interested, I can post them on eBay (I realize I'm a first time poster here, so you can have the security of buying through that site w PayPal).
Thanks!
Michael

Hello Michael
I'd be interested. How about creating a new thread sharing the link when you get the ebay auctions created? John
