Set of two elongated clear pressed glass banana split dishes, each measuring 9.5" long. Featuring a shallow boat-shaped form with angled sides and molded footed base, these classic soda fountain pieces were designed for serving banana splits, sundaes, and other ice cream specialties. Their simple yet durable pressed glass construction reflects the utilitarian style of mid-century American diner and soda shop serviceware. Banana split dishes like these were popular fixtures of drugstores and ice cream parlors across the U.S. from the 1930s onward, embodying the golden era of soda fountain culture.
Both dishes in good condition with light surface wear, no major chips or cracks noted.
Each: 9.5" L
