Berg Salty Comments

Berg Salty Comments

This salt is a perfect match for a Higbee Salt, but has aA diamond-H in the bottom made with an acid stamp.Some say genuine Heisey, but many doubt that it is.

Dish called a “Blown Salt or Ash” in a salesman’s flyerIssued during World War II. Dubbed the “Berg Salt” in the “Heisey News” Actual dish has never been found to our knowledge.
