Day 45: Wembley Ware Salt and Pepper Shakers
Photo Caption: Day 45: Today’s piece is another of this weekends finds. If I could have luck like this every week I’d be a happy boy. This pair (and despite the different colours this is the original pairing) of salt and pepper shakers was made by Wembley Ware out of Subiaco, Perth, Western Australia featuring a hand painted image of the MV Princess of Tasmania (the Spirit of Tasmania’s predecessor) circa 1950s. Unmarked again because there is no room in the base. They possibly once had a sticker on them to identify the maker.

Day 44: Darbyshire Kangaroo Figure
Photo Caption: Day 44: Today’s piece is my find of the month so far. Made by the Darbyshire Pottery at Innaloo just outside Perth Western Australia circa 1950s. These pieces don’t really have a good place to put a makers mark so you have to know what you are looking for. This piece was spotted in amongst a load of Japanese made animals figures so it pays to keep your eyes peeled!
