Some more rare Vaseline pieces

In the picture the jug is marked 176239.   The large basket 160244 and the small basket at the back is unmarked but more frequently seen in blue.
Cheers Mike

Hi Mike

They also made the basket in a caramel colour. I have also had a lidded butter and tazza in the same pattern.

Thanks Roy,
yes dads got some in that colour, I shall take a photo at the next opportunity of his other colours not seen any other pieces in this colour or pattern apart from these baskets.
Yours seems to have more white than ours.
Cheers Mike

Oh, they are lovely Mike. I'm quite envious!

I'm just starting to focus my collection.  It's mainly Sowerby and Davidson at the moment, but I'm trying to acquire bits of other NE manufacturers.  Just need to clear out some of the other stuff to make room for it!   ;D
