Images WantedDick Henrywood

As many of you will be aware, I am attempting to catalogue all known British views on transferware, and while I am approaching publication of a first part, I am missing several images for illustration. Can anyone, anywhere, provide images of any of the following pieces, or news of where they might be available? The il-lustrations are of typical pieces, usually dinner or dessert plates, to show the usual series border.

Acorn and Oak Leaf Border series (Ralph Stevenson)A series of 20 different views. The dessert plate illustrated here shows “Cave Castle, Yorkshire” but I need images of: Brecknock Castle Untitled view on pierced basket “Dorney Court” Vegetable dish; square bowl “Gubbins, Hertfordshire” Small plate “Holliwell Cottage” Soup tureen Rivenhall Place Untitled view on pierced basket

“Antique Scenery” series (Zachariah Boyle)A common series of 29 different views. The soup plate illustrated here shows “Hexham Abbey”. I need just one image: “Jedburgh Abbey” Small plate; sauce tureen stand

Bluebell Border series (Ralph & James Clews)A series of 26 different views which should not be confused with a series using the same border by William Adams. The dinner plate illustrated here shows one view of “Fonthill Abbey, Wiltshire” Again, I need just one image: “Wingfield Castle, Suffolk” Small plate

“British History” series (Jones & Son)A series of 16 different scenes. The dinner plate illustrated here shows “Signing of Magna Charta”. I need two images here: “Death of General Wolfe” Large platters; drainer “Elizabeth Addressing the Troops” Sauceboat

Cherub Medallion Border series (Herculaneum)A series of 22 different views. The dessert plate illustrated here shows “Canter-bury”. I need images of three different view: “Darsie Castle” Small plate “Knaresborough” Square bowl “Scarbororough” Sauceboat; custard cup

Large Scroll Border series (John & Richard Riley)A popular series of 27 different views. The dinner plate illustrated here shows “Hollywell Cottage, Cavan”. In this case I am also missing three images: “Bickley, Kent” Sauce tureen “Compton Verney, Warwickshire” Item not known Langley Park, Buckinghamshire Untitled jug; cover for vegetable dish

Light Blue Rose Border series (Maker unknown)A less-common series of only 11 dfferent views. The dinner plate illustrated here shows “Tedesley Hall”. Again, I am missing three images for this series: “Castle Richard” Sauce tureen “Gunton Hall” Small platter “Kirkstall Abbey” Platter

Morning Glory Border series (Maker unknown)An unusual series in that these views were produced on tea wares, with just nine different scenes known. The saucer illustrated here shows “Barlborough Hall”. I need just one more image: “Finborough Hall” Teapot

Pineapple Border series (John Meir)A relatively common series of 23 different views. The dessert plate illustrated here shows “DalbertonTower, Wales”. I am mssing two images:“Kirkham Priory Gateway, Yorkshire” Toddy plate“Lumley Castle, Durham” Sauceboat

Also news of any views in the “Clyde Scenery” series by the Jacksons, the “European Lions” series by John Ridgway, the “Hibernia” series by John Wedg Wood, and the “Views of London” series by John Goodwin. The plates illustrated below show Lee House, “Conway Bridge”, Enniskerry in County Wicklow, and the “Royal Exchange”.

I would be hugely grateful for help with any of these pieces, and would, of course, incorporate suitable cred-its. I can be contacted by email via dhenrywood@waitrose.com or dhenrywood@bowstation.com.
