Frankoma introduced its annual Christmas plate series in 1969, using Oklahoma clay sourced from the company’s own local deposits—material known for its warm, earthy tones and distinctive firing variations. This first‑year release, Laid In A Manger, features John Frank’s relief artwork depicting a stylized nativity scene. The sculpted details and glaze variations highlight the dimensional relief and the plate’s mid‑century ceramic character.
