Friedrich his original question was “what this dish was used for ” Do you know ??
You said “against what is stated” but nothing was stated about the Mfr !! Explain please !!

Oh,, you mean it wasn`t located in Carlsbad ?? Just figured out what you were speaking about !!

Well,, I cross posted this to another forum to find out what this dish was used for !! My guess was way off !! Scroll down at the link and see other dishes like yours !!

Can’t seem to scroll down. I really would like to know if someone could tell me please.

Okay figured it out. Thats pretty cool. They sure had a lot of time on there hands back then. Thanks to all.
