Plate with Titanic Austria and initials E. H. 1912

Category
China
Condition
Good
Description

We tried to get some information about this plate on the internet.  The only thing we found is that of a man named Jay Sherman, a homeless man, inherited a plate from his great Aunt Eva Husted.  The plate sold at $10,000.  We looked his plate and the markings on the back are identical to ours the only thing ours has the initials E. H. 1912 and his doesn't.  He received a letter of Authenticity from the makers Pickerhammer Manufacture in Czech Republic stating that his plate was made for the liner Titanic in 1911.  Could ours be the same?  Please help us!

Heavily tarnished 2-handled pot (Sugar bowl? - seems too big) and 1-handled Pitcher from my mother's estate, and probably from her mother's.  Don't know any history or dates.  Both have same mark on bottom.  Pot is slightly heavier and rounder than the pitcher.

Small Bronze Lion Statue

Category
Metalware
Condition
Good
Description

The statue is hollow with signs of patina.  I cannot tell if it is solid bronze or bronze over a metal substrate.  A magnet will not stick, nor does it interfere with a compass.  On the underside, there are yellowish stiations in the metal as well as slight green oxidation.  After close inspection, I cannot make out any artist names.  It would appear that this was given away as a marketing premium. 

The only mention that I can find of the O.F. Meadows company is a letter written November 16, 1927 from the Board of County Commissioners praising the company for their "Premier Warm Air System."

I would like to know the value as well as any additional history about the company and/or timeframe that these were given out.
