I think I found one of these today and wonder why the Portage site didn't have a number for theirs.

I won't have photos until Sunday, but I will put these here to check measurements.
The one I found is similar to the first one re glaze.

Dear Sallie lady said to me "you are lucky to find an ashtray here as we are a Christian organisation."  "Oh I just want the shape thanks, I won't be using it." I replied.

Bumped into one of the Portage Ceramics cataloguers today and she said "We tried not to make too many assumptions, but the experts will know more about it than we did." Heheee we are enthusiasts not experts Laughing

The records show that this was made at the Titian factory 11.11.80 and the glaze is similar to some mugs I have from around that time. The measurements are the same as the Portage Museum.
