The Rose-Lilac Crown Platter and Rose-Lilac 7-Part Divided Platter have repeatedly been reported by well-known vintage glass authors as made by Anchor Hocking, exclusively for Coles stores in Australia. This is not the case.

Crown Crystal Glass Company in Australia designed this EAPC 7-Part Divided Platter in Crystal and Rose-Lilac. While they copied Anchor Hocking’s Early American Prescut pattern, this piece itself is an original. Anchor Hocking never made a 7-Part EAPC Platter.

This Swivel Rack for the EAPC Lazy Susan is often the most difficult part for collectors to find when hunting for the parts that make up the Lazy Susan. The Brass version appears in Anchor Hocking catalogs as part of the Lazy Susan from thru 1973. Then in 1974 they switched to Chrome. The lucky collector may find one of each.
Six of these Inserts are set around a Dip Bowl on a Large Platter which itself sits on a wire swivel rack to form the Lazy Susan. These inserts can be somewhat hard to find in the wild. I’ve heard of collectors finding a couple at a time.
The Salad Forks and Spoons Anchor Hocking included in Early American Prescut sets were made of acrylic or plastic. So many EAPC collectors replace them with glass utensils from the Thousand Line/Stars & Bars Line, also made by Anchor Hocking, so it keeps it in the family.
The elusive Paneled Bowl is a beaut! It’s gorgeous. It has flare! It is definitely and eye-catcher. Be prepared to spend a pretty penny to buy one online. If you’re lucky you might find one in the wild.
Side dishes, vegetables, small salads, and more fit perfectly in the Oval Bowl. Anchor Hocking only produced this for a few years, so it’s not as common as some of the other EAPC bowls.
The Medium Serving Bowl is the perfect size for many side dishes on your dinner table. It was sold individually and in the Dessert Set and Hostess Set.

The Large Serving Bowl is one of the four items that launched Anchor Hocking’s Early American Prescut line in its Anchorglass 1960-61 Catalog.
The Small Swirl Platter is highly desired by Early American Prescut collectors. The swirl dividers perfectly align with the platter’s design making it a beautiful addition to EAPC collections.
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.
The Large Platter is one of the four items that launched Anchor Hocking’s Early American Prescut line in its Anchorglass 1960-61 Catalog.
The Hostess Tray is one of the four items that launched Anchor Hocking’s Early American Prescut line in its Anchorglass 1960-61 Catalog. The candy dish is listed in the catalog as “750 – 12 x 6½” Hostess Tray”.
You can use a Gondola, sometimes called a Banana Split Bowl, as tableware or decorware. I often use mine to hold goat cheese, Ritz crackers, cookies, carrots, and more.

This handy EAPC Divided Relish is quite common and easy to find. It’s also quite practical and useful. You can put slices of meat on one side and cheese on the other for a quick deli tray, pickles and olives, lettuce and tomato, crackers and cheese, cookies, and candy… The options are endless. Just pick your favorite duo and put this tray to work.
These sparkling Dip Bowls are ideal for salads, fruit, cereal, desserts, candy, and other uses. Anchor Hocking seemed to consider them quite versatile, too, because they included them in several sets.
Anchor Hocking only listed this EAPC Sugar and Creamer Tray in the Sugar & Creamer Set. I have not found any listing for it by itself.
The Pickle Dish is perfect for pickles, corn-on-the-cob, celery and more. Anchor Hocking refers to it in its catalogs as 8½” Prescut Oval Relish or simply Relish. As so many other items are also referred to as a Relish dish, I used the name EAPC collectors most often use so it wouldn’t be confused with the many other relishes.
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.
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.
The EAPC 5-Part Large Platter has a raised edge in the center that forms a circle, and four more raised lines radiate out to the edge of the platter dividing the plate into five distinct sections. This makes it great for displaying a variety of foods on the same platter while also keeping them separate.
The 3-Part Hostess Tray is the same size as the Hostess Tray. Great for relishes, crackers and cheese, fruit, etc.
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!
