Nothing like dancing and lounging weiners roasting themselves upon which to plate the ultimate junk food junket of never-ending dogs and burgers this 4th of July. As long as the dachsund featured in the middle, this hefty 20″x16″ ceramic platter has five compartments to load up weinies and associated condiments. Made in 1958 by Lane & Co. California Pottery, I’ve been lucky enough to find three of these over the years. It’s the perfect platter to serve my favorite goopy hot dogs on, recipe below.

    I enjoyed your story and all pictures, we saw the weinermobile last year in College Station, Texas. I was so excited to have seen it. I grew up in California watching ‘The Brady Bunch’ so it wad good to see Susan was with you and you all went to visit the Brady House.
    I also have a hot dog people platter I inherited from my grandmother.

    Thanks
