Norah Creina Steam-Yacht
The Norah Creina Steam-Yacht (misspelt 'Yacth') was perhaps on the same copper plate as the 'Unfortunate London' and 'Truelove from Hull'. The transfer larger than average size, and appears less regularly than the other ship transfers. The image appeared in the Illustrated London News in 1859.
Attributed to Moore & Co's Wear Pottery and Scott's Southwick Pottery
Below are the only two recorded plaques with the subject. The left is typical of Moore's Wear Pottery at a time when Moore's and Scott's were sharing transfers (Scott's supplied Moore's with 'blanks', ie plain earthenware, for decoration), although this plaque was almost certainly potted at Moore's. The right plaque below is a mould associated with the short-lived partnership of Galloway & Atkinson at the 'Albion Pottery' which ended c1864. It appears that Moore's acquired two of their plaque moulds.
A large unmarked wash bowl with decoration typical of Moore's Wear Pottery.
A pink lustre jug, again with zig-zag lustre decoration typical of Moore's. The 'unfortunate' SS London sank in 1866 so this jug and the bowl above must post date that.
An orange lustre jug, c1870, with the transfer. Orange lustre was introduced in the early to mid 1860s amongst the North East potteries.
Attributed to Sheepfolds Warehouse
The transfer printed in gold on a blue glass rolling pin. Norman Lowe, who has a similar pin with a transfer of the 'Star of Tasmania', has suggested that by the 1870s, the copper plates with these ship transfers had been moved to Sheepfolds Warehouse which, employing the principles of division of labour, decorated white earthenware items for both Moore's and Scott's. Sheepfolds was known to have had a side line in decorating rolling pins.
