Maker: Ridgway  Pattern: Humphreys Clock

Humphreys Clock is a series of views depicting scenes from Dicken's stories. They are taken from the illustrations in the magazine, in which Dicken's stories were first published, and Ridgway & Co introduced a complete range of table and other wares in the 1840s, decorated with these scenes.
Pap boats were used to feed pap to invalids or infants. Pap was made from flour or bread boiled in water and apparently an egg, dash of beer, rum or brandy might be added to provide extra sustenance! These idiosyncratic survivors of another age have become strongly collected today.
No backstamp.
A few minor signs of age, overall excellent condition.

Dimensions: 11.5 cm long 6.5 cm high at spout / 4.5 ins long 2.5 ins high at spout
