[QUOTE="LoveTheHunt!, post: 390843, member: 8191"]The following is one mark I found online that resembles the one on my plate, but with the additional wording, "Delfts", "Belgium", and "La Souvière". Google Translate tells me the latter phrase is French (one of the official languages of Belgium) for "The Souvenir". That agrees with the idea of a souvenir plate, but of Belgian origin. The question remains [I]which[/I] "Boch" pottery made it, and when. "Wall plates" (with holes for hanging) may have had a heyday in the 1950s, but they go back somewhat further than that, to at least the early 1900s, and probably back into the 1800s. However, the great condition of my plate suggests it may be from a later period rather than earlier. I just would like to find something [I]definitive[/I] about it... [ATTACH]135600[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
