Impressed marks to reverse: British Registry Mark for 19 February 1876, with painted pattern number to the thumbprint reserve, '3341' which corresponds to the entry, 'Tower Stilton' in the George Jones Majolica Pattern Numbers Books preserved in the Wedgwood Archives and partially printed in Bergeson.
