please let me know your ideas:
we have splitted
attributed and unknown 'schalen + teller' - 'bowls + plates' in the upper frame
in order to reduce loading time of this much too large folder
which is your opinion, please?

Thanks for your opinion

Oh yes Pamela, that's much faster, thank you. :kissy:

BTW isn't this one on Marcus' book CD? http://www.pressglas-pavillon.de/schalen/06592.html and as mentioned here: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,20628.0.html

Yes, Pamela, it works well.

Nice to see your Sowerby "2487 BOAT".   The 1954 catalogue shows it without the plinth in four versions, the first of which is yours:

Large : Incurved, 10"

Large : Straight, 10½"

Small : Incurved, 8"

Small : Straight, 8½"

The rare special plinth made for the large boat is interesting, as it is the only known Sowerby plinth with feet, and the earliest known pattern number for a Sowerby plinth.

... and from a damaged and fragmentary 1933 trade catalogue, it looks as if the pattern (imitation cut diamonds) name was Manchester.   Glen's CDs or DVDs should confirm this.

Here it is called a "SALAD BOAT".   The large size was Cupped, Flanged and Straight;  the small size Incurved and Straight.

... and 07420 is a Bagley Andromeda figurine, notice that she is chained to the rock, freestanding version, usually sold with a bloom ring, and usually marked "MADE IN ENGLAND".   Other versions had a circular peg base which fitted into a flower block for a centrepiece, see here (note the caption has it the wrong way around), and a circular peg base with bayonet fitting, which fitted the Leek table lamp.
