An Export Plate by Compton - SOLD

This 8" diameter plate is typical of the thousands of plates the Townsend firm and its successors sent to America. This plate marked with a "Made in London" label and the oval Compton touch are likely the product of Thomas & Townsend Compton, London 1802-1814.

The plate is in very good plus condition with excellent hammering on the booge. The touchmarks are in very fine condition with nearly full strikes of both.
