Repaired Fox and Grapes Alphabet Plate, 1880
Here is a much better exemplar than the plate I had found earlier. The colored design in the middle is very well preserved. Repairs have been made to reinstate a smaller piece from about 10 and 11 o'clock and a larger piece extending from 11 to 4 o'clock.

Black and white cup featuring Robert Dole and Bill Clinton as tortoise and hare, 1996
The curious thing about the design on this mug is that Clinton is heading in one direction and Dole is heading in the other! The design is signed ""MPriggee. KPBX. '96. Spokane."

Ox and the Frog Tin Plate, 1910
The curved edge of each, almost an inch in width, has a green, gold, and red pattern. Then in the center is a multicolored illustration. OF is the best preserved of the original set; it seems to lack the pock-marking of the other two. All three show some rust and staining. They may have spent some serious time in someone's attic or even sand-box! FC is the most worn of the later three. In fact, OF and WL are in very good condition. What a great and curious find!

Ceramic plate of GA by "Jars, France pour F & S.", 1920
This colorful plate contrasts the brown of the grasshopper with the black of the ant. There is a sack, presumably of grain, in front of the ant's substantial home. Flowers and meadows seem to be blooming; is that appropriate for this scene, in which the grasshopper comes to the ant in winter?
Ceramic plate of FC by "Jars, France pour F & S.", 1920
This colorful plate has the crow leaning down to hear the fox's compliments just before he drops the round of cheese. A light colored stream edges the field in the background, with pleasant reeds, leaves and grasses filling out the scene. The fox, though his back is to us, looks up expectantly.
Ceramic plate of "The Heron" by "Jars, France pour F & S.", 1920
This colorful plate has the heron standing on one leg in the midst of calm water. Two features mark this excellent scene. One is that there is no other creature present. The artist rightly shows how the heron is at the center of his own world. Secondly, his eye looks out at us with something like disdain. Disdain drives the heron in this fable.
