<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 332523, member: 308"]Hello Board Friends - I am asking about this for one of the other dealers at the mall my showcases are in. This porcelain plaque measures about 12" x 18". It is hand painted and does have some marks. There are two marks impressed on the back. One looks like the letters MR with a smaller C tucked inside the M. The letters are inside a circle. I can't make heads or tails out of the other mark. It might be a number starting with 3 or it could be some kind of geometric symbol. Sorry about the glare; the lighting in the mall is not the best. There is some writing in pencil on the back but it is too faded to read and may not be in English. Does anyone recognize the mark? Any comments are appreciated. We have been scratching our heads over this one for some time. Thanks!</p><p>Don</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]111277[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]111278[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]111279[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]111280[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]111281[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]111282[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
