Very Good. (7.5). Some discoloured spots underneath. Some making stilt type marks underneath, one presents as a spot of deep wear or shallow flake. A little fine glaze wear in places. Strangely enough, there are no chips - in fact, I haven't seen a chipped Duraline Ware plate of any sort!! This early advertising plate is a great item, we have sold 1950s versions before which are totally different, but rarely this 1936 version with the various crests as examples around the outside, this is only the second one we have sold. A great item! Estimate: $150-200
