Husband picked this up on his garage sale travels this morning. I can't see it in the gallery. cheers, marl

Just gorgeous!!
Thanks Marl

I found a plate in this pattern, but with a dark green outer band.
It matches a pattern in the Auckland Museum Crown Lynn records that has Pattern 367 on it.
I am visiting the Museum this week to find out when this pattern was made and to determine when the Kelston British stamp was used.

Would be great to have a better name than 367. I have this in burgundy trim too with Kelston British on back.

Wow so that is three different coloured bands so far and there may well be more!!
Of course that advert could be any one of these colours, but who would know as it's in black and white.
It's from the 1959 Advertising Scrapbook, which is the earliest one at the Museum. I will also check out the old tulip handle time-frame as well, which was around the same time. I've been coming across the Kelston British backstamp a lot lately and need to suss out when it was used.

Got this at the Collector's Market and only just realised that it is the same pattern, but without the coloured band.  Please note that the cup has the elongated handle and all of the above patterns will have this cup
