Garrison Pottery
The Dixon version has one row of marks on the sails of the ship.
This transfer appears on a large pedestal bowl, which although unmarked, is of a form and decoration typical of the Garrison Pottery, c1860.
Moore's Pottery
The printed mark is from the bridge transfer on the other side of the jug. The Moore version has two rows of marks on the lower sails of the ship.
Scott's Pottery
The Scott version has one row of marks on the sails of the ship. The jug below from c1850 with typical Scott flowers around the collar. Note the small vertical scratch that appears above the left-most leaf in the third detail. It also appears on the orange lustre bowl below.
The transfer is less clear on the mug below, but appears to be from the same transfer plate.
Although the bowl below is unmarked, other examples with this orange green and red border, with a double transfer, have been recorded with the Scott impress.
Ball's Deptford Pottery
A plate with a degraded transfer and faded lustre typical of Ball's Deptford Pottery around the turn of the 20th century. The transfer comes from the same copper plate as the Scott bowl above.
