I'm sure my daughter has one like that - left by my mother in law - I'll ask her for a couple of items. This one dates back to about 1900 I think

I can't find it but this cup has some similarities - I'm not convinced that the saucer and plate match though.

Here he is : http://www.david-dickinson.net/about-da ... -biog1.htm

Only when he's on the tele he looks like he's spent too much time on the sun bed.

The site above has slightly confusing information... but it says that LTD was added to Cartwright and Edwards after about 1926 so if this doesn't have LTD then it would be earlier. And Victoria was a trademark after about 1912. So that would make yours 1912-1926. Only then they show a stamp which is later but doesn't have the LTD on either :roll:
