These I have been able to trace to portugule,....a couple I seen on ebay exactly like them notes,..late 1700's to early 1800's..(thirty bucks each...lol).all hand painted and also found in mass in the same tile stash under a slab .
ok,...the story on these is amazing,....they are Viuva Lamego lisboa tiles made in Portugal, after having this set looked at,..they believe it is some of the earliest prints,(early 1800's..BECOUSE... they stop "re useing" tiles when they messed up the first drawing,..note in the photo some of them have "ghost's"...when the company started they reused tiles as to cut down on waist, and waisted funds.i was offerd 100 bucks each...sitting on them a while....lol
