Excellent. Extensive crazing throughout. Relatively minor wear to the gold leaf pattern. Around the outer rim of the plate are some scratches through the glaze, a few of these are a little bigger, basically small glaze flakes. The bottom right corner of the print looks like it slipped when being printed when this plate was being made. Note that in the window they are advertising OXO! Some wear to the writing in the upper region. Some grime and a few little discoloured spots. A lovely, early plate. Grade: N/A Estimate: $50 - 75
