This is a 62 piece china set that my mother purchased from a soldier stationed in Japan before the war. It is dated pre-war; 1908-1939, however I am unsure of the exact date. I have not been able to identify the pattern on the dishes through the internet since there are so many. I am trying to find out the value of this set and perhaps sell it. There are 12 dinner plates, 12 dessert plates, 12 cups, 12 saucers, 12 salad bowls, creamer, sugar, and caraffe. This set was used only once because we were so afraid to use it in fear of one day breaking a plate. She doesn't remember how much she paid for the set (she's now 91 years old) but whatever she paid was a lot of money in those days. I would appreciate any help you can give regarding this set. Also please let me know if you need a photo of the complete set.
