interesting
Mine is marked on the bottom "Beamish Glass Ware"....like this one in a February 25th and 26th, 2005 Hunt Auction...If I recall I bought this maybe about four years ago at an antiques mall in Petaluma Ca...and I think I posted it on here and someone said what team it was....but I can't find the post...I'm thinking of calling in the marines on this ...perezfan / Mark Steinberg....for a clear answer...

There's certainly not much info on this china, but it appears that 2 different makers used this same design for Pennant Cafe (which appears to be the common thread here).
The Pennant Cafe was located in the basement of the Sexton Hotel and the adjoining Dixon Hotel (the Kling-Allen Building) in Kansas City, Mo. Apparently the entire restaurant was decked out in Baseball-themed decor. It must have been a sight to behold. This Pennant Cafe China has been attributed to both Beamish Glass Ware and Shenango Pottery of New Castle, PA. The Shenango examples are thought to be circa 1910, according to an article I found. So perhaps Beamish was a secondary supplier, or both companies were contracted to produce this Baseball-themed china at different points in time.

Found more great info on this...
The "Kling" from Kling-Allen Building was John Kling (former Catcher for the Chicago Cubs) who partnered with Benny Allen, to build the Hotel. See link below for more info and images... https://rwcn-idwiki-2.restaurantware...ntent_category Last edited by perezfan; 12-12-2022 at 09:14 PM.

Below are some pertinent ads and articles about the Pennant Cafe, where this China was utilized. In the 4th article, it mentions that "Even the China, which is decorated with Baseball designs, is worth $3,500.00" (way back then!)
