Thanks for trying out History Hub! We hope we can get you the help you're looking for.
This is the same question as 2 dishes from 1955 Geneva Summit displaying all 4 flags USA flag 48 stars, were gifts to the participants, all but 2 sets were destroyed , back of plates no markings common for time , one is numbered 36 , correct? The admins see everything no matter where it goes, so you only need to ask the question once.

3 people found this helpfulDo you remember to which museum you sent the plates? Some states have museum property laws that allow museums to claim "abandoned" property left in their collection. In the museum world these items are called found-in-collection and typically have no deed of gift or any other documentation. For some museums its a significant problem. Here is a link with more information: Old Loan Abandoned Property Disposition - Association of Registrars and Collections Specialists - Association of Registr…
President Eisenhower attended the Geneva Summit in 1955. We asked the staff at the Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library if they had any examples in their holdings. They replied that they do not have any examples of these plates.
If, however, you wanted to know more about the 1955 Geneva Summit this Subject Guide would be a great place to start. Information on researching at the Eisenhower Library and Museum is available here: Eisenhower Presidential Library.
