Old Leads Sprays Pattern, made in England by Royal Doulton around 1912, in the Art Deco era.. If anyone could tell me how to find an exact date, or close to it, I would love to find out. I am not sure what the 18 is on the back.

I have never seen a Royal Doulton mark like that. If you search at replacements.com you will see that the pattern Old Leeds Spray was in production from 1912-56
Many Thanks Phil !!
Thank You maryh1956. Is there any way I can nail down a specific year on this odd marked plate??

Many Thanks walksoftly !!
Doulton used 2 digit date marks on a lot of their collectors plates, usually impressed, but I really don't know about their dinner ware, and whether that "18" on your piece is of significance.
It is possible that yours has a different mark because it was made during or at the end of WWI, and perhaps something happened to the factory which was in London? I would contact a Doulton collectors Society for more info

Try typing in the name & any figures with numbers that are on the back & see if that brings you up a little more or something extra to work off. The only other suggestions I have you could try a replacement site I am not sure if they help in that direction, or try getting a book on Royal Doulton patterns & numbers.
Many Thanks Zowie !!
