Couple of things I was wondering about here if I may ask. Does anyone recognize this plate and or know the theme named for this? Also the incised mark. Looked up a few Minton mark websites. Wasn't able to peruse through and find anything concrete here. Wondering age on this plate possibly. Thx for all the help here once more
Thx Fort.....always count on your support here
Thx vcal
JMS stands for John Moyr Smith. Smith’s series on Fairy Tales, c. 1873-74, was introduced at about the same time as a book titled The Old Fairy Tales, that he illustrated and designed on tiles for Minton Hollins & Co. The popular Fairy Tales series was produced in a number of color combinations and also was used on tablewares. The factory liked to extend the life of tile designs by also placing the design on plates with an added border.
Yours is the Cinderella plate
Here you can see a tile in blue color.
