Johnson Brothers, Allertons and Japan Blue Willow Plates

no need for the poll......ask the questions in the post itself...... next time !

 

Just FYI, you don't need to use the polling feature, you can post without it.

Blue Willow was made by many companies for many years so "fake" doesn't really apply. It's very commonly found and mostly of little value.
You have a range of ages for your examples, the Johnson Brothers piece is recent. The Allertons piece is early-ish 20th century, that mark being used from 1929-42, per THIS info. I don't know about the age of the Japan plate as I only collect English-made pieces (though not Blue Willow).
Lots of info on the pattern and makers can be found by googling.
My MIL had a large collection of vintage BW, they were her "everyday" dishes. When she passed we had an estate sale... nobody bought it and it ended up being donated to the local Salvation Army thrift store.

 

still good pics !!!

 

The Johnson is post WW2 and probably even newer.

According to Replacements, Allerton's discontinued the Willow pattern in 1907.

 

Here is a link to Replacements' entry for the Willow pattern with "only Japan" and no maker name. They have no dates for it.

Not according to THIS, whom I'd be more inclined to believe over Replacements.
Allertons marks with LTD (as OPs mark has) are post-1912. OPs plate also includes the words "Made in", which is generally post-1921.
