Figure 32  Plate, Charles Allerton & Sons, Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, England, ca. 1925. Whiteware. D. 5 1/2". This unmarked plate was found in Thorley’s attic, along with pieces designed by him. Plates are recorded in this pattern that are impressed on the reverse with numbers ranging from 24 to 40, indicating that the plates—and most likely the decoration—were made from at least 1924 to 1940, both during and after Thorley’s stint at Allerton. It is possible that this is one of the patterns that Thorley had Mrs. Woolley reestablish.
