<p>[QUOTE="*crs*, post: 38683, member: 196"]13 1/2" x 19" English? platter. Romantic vs Aesthetic. I'm thinking Romantic due to the flowers. Anyone know what the flowers are? The backstamp was lightly impressed and almost entirely glaze filled. I believe it is a crown and circle mark. Maybe a double circle. There are letters that I can't make out around the circle and there is a word across the circle. I have no idea as to the red marks nor the 4 indentations. I've tried a pencil rub and cinnamon with no luck. I'm thinking maybe John Maddock & Sons. 1880-1896</p><p><a href="http://www.thepotteries.org/mark/m/maddock.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.thepotteries.org/mark/m/maddock.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.thepotteries.org/mark/m/maddock.html</a></p><p>I've provided 3 pics of mark. None are very good. Also, the diamond mark is unlike any I've seen before. It appears to have an "R" at the top with "NO" across the middle and "7066"? below the NO. I've seen the Rd.****** before stamped in a straight line but never inside a diamond. Could this be the Rd number? If so, I believe it is 1884</p><p><img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/811608268_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/811608274_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/811608291_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/811608331_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/811608346_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/811608296_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/812369884_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> <img src="http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/1/6/6/8/5/5/9/webimg/812369894_o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
