Approximate Measurements Height: 8 1/2" Capacity: 65 fluid ounces History found online by Glenita Stearns, Glass Review - June 1981 One of the moat striking, and certainly one of the most sought after of Hocking Depression Glass patterns, is Miss America. Manufactured Miss America dinner plate only from 1935 to 1937, its short life span, as well as its beauty, add to the desirability of this pattern. Hocking produced a full dinner service in Miss America. Plates range in sizes from 5¾" sherbet plates to 10¼" dinner plates. A 10¼" grill plate was also made. There are a variety of bowls and serving pieces, including a four-part relish that was at one time a premium for a spice company. Miss America is collected mainly in pink, though it is one of the few patterns where crystal is also avidly searched out. A few pieces were produced and are generally available in green: the 5¾" plate, the 6¾" plate, be 8½" salad plate, 4½" and 6¼" berry bowls, a 10 ounce tumbler and a cup. No green saucer has been reported to date. Miss America was available through Montgomery Wards in 1936.
