EARLY CHILDS ALPHABET ABC PLATE
WILD ANIMALS
THE ELEPHANT
BROWNHILLS POTTERY CO
Staffordshire England ~ 1880
This large 7 1/4 " alphabet plate has a crisp image transfer printed in rich dark bittersweet chocolate brown with great color polychrome hand painting in green. In addition to the entire ABC alphabet transfer with the classic Brownhills decorative clover transfer, this plate has a central cartouche of an Elephant wandering the Plains. Such a sweet image.
Condition is good, very clean and bright. Normal stilt marks front and rear. A very light short line off the rim at the letter Z. The image is part of the Wild Animals series coveted by collectors. This transfer, rarely seen on the market, will be a special abc plate in your collection.
