<p>[QUOTE="ValerieK, post: 9502971, member: 7360"]Yes, the bad photo on the right is the same as my square one with the plump squirrel, and the one at the top, shown sideways, is the same as one of mine I didn't show in the photos. I was going to comment, but grandparent holiday duties forced me away from the computer. Thank you for this link, so quickly found when I had spent hours to no avail, but I was searching for Doulton Lambeth, which really didn't help. I see that the plates in the auction lot didn't sell even at a low estimate. They can't have been helped by the very poor photos, and no close-up of the back marks; also, the gold trim just looks like dirt round the edges. I will put a photo of my lot under here, the gold is slightly rubbed but still neat. This photo is aso rather faint, I'm afraid. I am a bit baffled by the description of the lot in the link as "Spanish ware", which seems to describe a technique involving outlining the flowers in a narrow gold line, with gold veins etc, nothing like mine. I must apologise for mis-correcting you on Charles Hart, who worked for Doulton Burslem which also made my plates (I now know), but I haven't been able to find a humorous plate by him yet. My current thinking is now C M Wray, but can't find photos of plates by them either.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]449539[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
