<p>[QUOTE="Ownedbybear, post: 229177, member: 29"]Many of these crested wares were German up until WW1 and sometimes marked accordingly. German ones started to be imported in about the early 20s again, but were usually marked as Foreign. Given that this one isn't marked, it's possibly from the inter war period - certainly, no newer than the 1930s. But the numbering looks a bit older, as does the use of a late 19th C steam and sail ship . So probably just before WW1 and yes, I think German. </p><p><br /></p><p>Shelley made these as well as Goss. </p><p><br /></p><p>Advance has nothing to do with a ship name.
