Being the most readily available Informal pattern has hurt "Harvest Time." Prices are extremely low, which benefits the buyer, but in my opinion does not reflect the true value of this classic design. The illustrative nature of the pattern alone makes it interesting, and the color palette is classic. I've long thought that a table set with "Harvest Time" would make for a magnificent Thanksgiving. I don't have room for yet another set of dinnerware, however, so I passed these 3 plates by for some other lucky hunter.
