Ohio History Connection
Description: John and Annie Glenn commissioned this plate from an Ohio potter to give to staff and others at Christmas in 1998. This round plate has white interior glaze with a brown rim. Engraved into the rim is "U.S. SENATE / 1974 / 1998 / ANNIE + JOHN GLENN" with six stars cut out. There is white glaze in the numbers and letters on the rim. The foot of the plate is unglazed and "DAVIS / '98" is engraved into the base. Lyn and David Glenn, children of John and Annie Glenn, donated several items belonging to their parents in 2018. Many of the objects are from their household or are related to John Glenn's career as an astronaut and U.S. Senator. View on Ohio Memory.
