Re: FAMOUS DINNERWARE PATTERNS

I believe the Eisenhower china was Castleton and a place setting was on display at the company store.

But I also remember getting out of school so we could walk down to where JFK was being presented w/ a set of Castleton china. He was so handsome and his hair glowed in the sunlight.

@Group 5 minus 1  I saw JFK in Chicago when I was a kid in grade school....I remember his hair most of all. Gleamed like copper in the sun.
