Traditional Poole from Doncaster Racecourse Antiques Fair

This matched pair of egg cups came from the antiques fair at Doncaster this summer, as did the jug below. The egg cups are shape number 713 and the pattern is RE.  They were made several years apart, are by different painters, sightly different sizes and one was cracked.  So I didn't feel guilty about splitting them and selling the cracked one.

The Jug is shape number 304 (5 inches tall) and is painted in the relatively uncommon HQ pattern by Nellie Bishton.
