HLCCA Exclusive Juice Pitchers
Celebrating the 1930's and 1940's
Introduced in 1999, HLCCA started the 1930s Series to celebrate the architecture, lifestyles and arts of the time. The series continued through part of the 1940's. Due to the retirement of the juice pitcher, the 1945 juice pitcher is the last of the 1940's series.
