Earthenware pots, a wooden cartwheel and softly rendered straw create a nostalgic country setting.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nProduced from Royal Worcester fine bone china in 1990, the plate was commissioned by Compton \u0026amp; Woodhouse to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the RSPCA. The reverse carries the title and the verse:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n“Can I play too, I’d like it so\u003cbr\u003e\nand three is company you know!”\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nA fine gold-coloured line finishes the rim and frames the softly coloured illustration. The plate would make an appealing display piece for collectors of Royal Worcester, Pam Cooper artwork, Rough Collies, cats, rabbits or traditional English animal china.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFactory-made hanging holes are present on the reverse for display with a suitable plate hanger.
