Friar Tuck screamed in mortal agony as Ralph, the Mastermind of the Canine Criminal Underworld, luridly licked his tonsure! Adding insult to injury with the dreaded "Leg-Dance From Hell," our rapacious anti-hero made off with this...







I can read: HAND DECORATED and MADE IN CALIFORNIA USA and, I think: FRANCISCAN, but not the rest

Does anybody know this pattern??

ALSO: at 12.5" in diameter, do I call it a SERVING PLATTER??

THANKS everybody!!!!!

Hi Tom,

The pattern is Apple and it's a chop plate.

Snyder's "Franciscan Ware"ays this mark used from FEb. 1939 to 1947. Lucy is correct Apple Chop Plate.

Bad news: those flakes on the decoration are going to affect its collectibility.

Be sure to disclose wear or knife marks in the glaze and examine closely for cracks: they're sometimes hard to see in Franciscan handpainted. (Don't ask how I know, it's too painful to recall.)

Signed,

Mr. Melvin
