Oriental Sports is a copy of Spode's Indian Sporting Series. A version is known made by Edward Challinor, who briefly operated the Overhouse Works at Burslem in the early 1820s, but this plate is from another version, which has a slightly different backstamp to pieces identified as being by Challinor. The scene is Death of the Bear.
Backstamp: Thistle and rose cartouche, with crown above and ORIENTAL SPORTS within banner.
Fine crazing with just a little discolouration on the back and some surface scratching otherwise excellent condition.
