May Peace Once More Our Trade Restore
See the Success to the Shipping Trade page for transfers with a similar ship.
This transfer originated on Tyneside and appears on items with printed marks for J Warburton. Below left is a detail from a Warburton-marked item. Below centre is the same transfer in use by Moore's c1840. Below right is a copy of the transfer found on Scott's items from the 1830s. Note the rows of dots on the sails are different on the Scott version.

The jug above is the earliest dated Moore inscription I have recorded so far. It has a rare View of the Cast Iron Bridge.
This late 1830s' to early 1840s' bowl, is from the Sunderland Museum & Winter Gardens, Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums collection.
And again on an 1840s' jug with a whiter body and similar decoration.
Below another with red and green enamels, and an inscription for 1842.
Attributed to Scott & Sons, Southwick, 1830s
The coloured enamels over the transfer are surprisingly similar to those found on the earlier Warburton items.

An alternative rendering of the transfer with Jack on one side of the ship and his girl on the other. The decoration on the handle is very similar to the mug above.
