Early American Prescut (EAPC)

Cruet – EAPC

The EAPC Cruet was included in several Early American Prescut multi-piece sets. It is one of the longest produced items in the EAPC line.

The EAPC Creamer was listed in the Sugar & Creamer Set in Anchor Hocking’s 1961-62 catalog, then sold separately beginning in the 1964 catalog. Later creamers have a different spout that shallower and less defined.

Console Set

The Console Set and Prescut Set appear to have been issued as catch-up sets to provide an easy way for retailers and customers to pick up two or all four of first four pieces the year after Anchor Hocking introduced the pattern.

Console Bowl – EAPC

Many EAPC Collectors were surprised – me included – to learn that the elusive Console Bowl was none other than the Punch Bowl Base. Just turn it over and voilà you have a Console Bowl!

Coffee Set

The EAPC Coffee Set was only issued for one year.

Cocktail Shaker - prototype, non-production EAPC item

The EAPC Cocktail Shaker is a unicorn. Blueprints and one or more prototypes were made, but it was never put into regular production.

Coaster Set

The EAPC Coaster Set was packaged in gift boxes, perfect for a last-minute hostess gift on your way to a party.

Coaster – EAPC

These Early American Prescut Coasters were sold in boxed sets of six. They have 4 slightly raised bars in the bottom to keep your glass from sticking to the coaster when you pick it up.

Chip & Dip Set

Anchor Hocking’s Early American Prescut Chip & Dip Set includes two different-sized bowls – a Dip Bowl and a Large Serving Bowl – that can be positioned one over the other with the help of a handy wire Dip Clip, thus taking up less room on a crowded table, bar, or counter.

Chip & Dip Clip – EAPC

The Chip & Dip Clip, aka Dip Clip, is a handy wire gadget that hooks onto the rim of the Chip Bowl, aka Large Serving Bowl, to provide a platform and hook to support a Dip Bowl above the Chip Bowl. The first Chip & Dip Sets – cataloged from 1965 to 1973 – included a Brass Dip Clip, and later sets a Chrome Dip Clip.

Ceiling Light Cover – EAPC

The EAPC Ceiling Light Cover is the same size and made from the same mold as the Large Serving Bowl. However, it has a hole drilled into the bottom for a finial to attach and is frosted on the inside to diffuse light.

Card Party Set

The EAPC Card Party Set includes all the dishes you need for a classy card party. Perfect for board gaming, too!

Cake Stand – EAPC

The Cake Stand/Flower Basket is the most versatile piece in the whole EAPC line. Put a Large Platter on top and you’ve got a Footed Cake Plate. You can create a raised Fruit Bowl by placing a Large Serving Bowl or Paneled Bowl on top. Add a Small Candy Lid for a Candy Jar.

Cake Plate

The EAPC Cake Plate is two pieces: a Large Platter set on a Cake Stand. Anchor Hocking packaged them together.

The Anchor Hocking Americana Punch Recipes booklet is the successor to the Anchor Hocking Party Starter Punch Recipe Book. It began including Americana booklets in its punch sets in 1975 when it switched to Orange boxes for EAPC in celebration of America’s Bounty.
