Collection of antique Goofus bowls and plate

Rose, carnation and thistle patterns in red and gold.
Goofus glass, a type of American pressed glass produced primarily between 1897 and the 1920s. 
Goofus glass is known for having unfired enamel paint applied to pressed glass, which makes the paint prone to chipping and flaking over time. 
 It was mass-produced and often given away as a premium with purchases or as prizes at carnivals and fairs. 
Due to the fragile nature of the paint, finding pieces in perfect condition is difficult, and the flaking paint is a common characteristic. 
To avoid further paint loss, it is recommended to handle these pieces as little as possible and only clean the clear glass side with a damp cloth.
