Where can i find a picture of bread plate Laura Ingalls Wilder talks of in her book with the wheat sheaf?

Question

In her book it does have a sketch of the plate that has the sides bent down and straight out (almost like a very shallow bowl with sides), yet on a site for EPAG plates it describes the plate with the edges bent downward. I have one of each style plate. I would like to know if anybody has seen the bread plate that is like hers and what style it was. Both plates have the wheat sheaf and around the edges "Give us this day our daily bread". Any information would be greatful. Thanks
