Anchor Hocking introduced the Small Platter in its 1964 catalog. It was intended to hold snacks for several people, not a meal for one despite Anchor Hocking calling it a plate. The term plate was often used in the 1960s to mean tray or platter.

Today collectors often use this Small Platter as a dinner plate. Personally, I prefer the Snack Plate for that use.
