This 10" plate shows a long ago scene of rural America, by Currier and Ives. From research, I have discovered that this is also an Avon Award. It was awarded to Avon Representatives for their service in 1977. I did not think there were any markings on the plate until I learned that little tidbit. When I looked again, there appears to be an A and 7 written together as one. I hope the picture shows it. As always, thanks for stopping by.

This 6 1/2" collectors plate was made by Pirken-Hammer, Czechoslovakia, between 1918 and 1945. I used the German translation to try and translate the words on the plate. It has something to do with sports association. There is gold trim around the edge of the plate and it looks worn in a few places. The scene on the plate almost looks like pencil sketching. It is in perfect condition, no chips or cracks.
