At first we were a bit dubious about a Tea Set for three! But, an entry in Price List G3, 1938 confirms it's existence: -
"Three miniature Cups and Saucers, on 2¾in. dia. tray, in assorted colours.
Novel and attractive. In fancy box. 1/-" |
| And finally, thanks to Jean Sanderson, the final proof! The interesting thing here is the 562-Tray which is a commemorative version, commemorating the Silver Jubilee of King George V and Queen Mary in 1935 (see below). Note the colours of the cups and saucers - Red, White and Blue! |
