    Does anyone recognize this pattern?

    I discovered this plate many years ago in a kitchen cupboard in a house that used to be my great aunt's. After she passed away the house was slated to be torn down by the new owner, and I received permission to go through and take out anything that might have been left behind. There were a lot of pieces of Blue Willow china, a painting by my great uncle, crystal door knobs, porcelain flush-mount light fixtures, a vanity stool, a teapot and this. It's in rough shape, but there's just something about it.

      I have a plate just like it! Mine is cracked too, and has a lot of dark discoloring, but it's still a beautiful plate. I found it left in a cupboard in a house we rented in VA a number of years ago.

      That's pretty neat that we both found the plates left behind in a kitchen cupboard! Will you be posting yours in Show & Tell?

      No. Unfortunately I dont have a working camera right now. I did check out yours (SMD) though! And we have a couple of other items in common too! Great minds think alike!
