    ALDERNEY BUTTER COLOR
    Pat. Feb. 21st 1905
    Measures approx. 10" dia.
    Very nice old heavy advertising plate with an image of what appears to be a woman surrounded by cherubs.
    Company made different types of colorants and dyes.
    Interestingly a huge federal
    raid was done at the plant in 1931 to shut down an illegal distillery !!!!!!!!!!  Lots of info online about it.
    Fabulous old beer advertising piece similar to a vienna art plate.  I believe it looks better in person than the photo.
    I think it could use a very light cleaning but will leave that to the buyer.
    Please note: pictures of taken of both sides .
    Displays very well and would be a great addition to your collection.
    The photos show it all and are part of the description so there are no surprises.
    Please note: Sorry for the glare. If you need more pics please let me know.
    PLEASE ASK IF YOU NEED ANY ADDITIONAL PHOTOS
    My photos are up close and show any blemishes.
    I always take pictures of all sides so there are no surprises for you. See all the pictures. I tried to get the photos with the least glare. (Difficult with gold, silver and white) If you need more pics please let me know.
