Based on your images this set is typical of sets made both before and after world war two. Very little china was made during the the war years ( 1939-45) due to conversion of factories to the war effort. Lefton began operations in 1941, most pieces by this company postdate World War Two. Sets comparable to yours often sell for about $25.00 at auction.
