Condition: Very fine Three minute chips right edge, slight roughness
bottom edge, surface near perfect. Style: Classical pictorial A tile from the popular Shakespeare series by
John Moyr Smith for Mintons, in the uncommon
grey multicolour colourway. Bizarrely called
grey 'monochrome' in the Mintons catalogue, one
would have thought that even if Mintons
marketing department had made the mistake the
colour printers would have corrected it but it
seems not. There are only eighteen of the multicolour
Shakespeares versus the twenty-four in single
colour. Verso very clean, removed from furniture,
embossed Mintons etc.
