<p>Not Much to tell really, they were one of just hundreds of pottery concerns churning out earthenware and ironstone for the American market during the late 19th Century. Here&#39;s a link for you:</p><p>http://www.thepotteries.org/allpotters/1010.htm</p><p>As far as value goes, not a fortune as it&#39;s badly crazed. At auction these often sell for under $125.00.</p><p>Lovejoy </p>

<p>Pretty much every household of middling income would have had a similar platter during the late Victorian era, generally the more elaborate the design the hoher it cost when new.</p><p>Lovejoy </p>
