This is so interesting already.  Yikes !!!!
When time permits I will add more, but check out how many different letters and dots there are already !!
Also there is a light blue LCC and a deep red LCC which was rather surprising.
These are just from our site plus the listing that Jeremy added a link to.

Listing the base markings in year order:
It is quite ridiculous to think that these letters represent people who worked with Elizabeth to my way of thinking.

1939 NK?
1941 BG +3 dots
1942 BG
1949 APB +3 dots
1954 EB + 3 dots
1960 CT +3 dots
1960 PC + 3 dots
1960 LG2 + 4 dots
1961 LG2 + 6 dots
1963 LCC + 8 dots

I see you have put it on Pinterest Ev but you haven't recorded the dots above.

Thanks Jeremy.
I have a piece of her work, it doesn't have a date and the markings are either C over 11 or C with the Pi symbol, so I won't add that one as it is too mysterious.

Another auction with controversy over the Elizabeth Matheson base marks.
This will never go away as the Potters Mark book entry saying that BG is Briar Gardner's mark will be there forever!!

I thought I would add this, as there doesn't appear to have been another piece with CN as the marking. How can you tell what year this was made please Ev?

Thank you!
The year is under PAKA.
Is it 61 ? If so then it was made in 1961.
