Found this Wedgewood Plate at an Estate Sale. Love the pretty light blue and intricate white filigree design.
I turned the plate around in search for a price tag. To my surprise there was note with the following inscription:
CHRISTMAS 1975
These Wedewood plates were given to Vivian and I on our 33rd .Wedding Anniversay, May 16th.1964 while on our Carribbean Cruise on the Grace Lines Santa Paula by 4 women who sat at the same table with us in the Dining Room. Their names were Mrs.Anne White, Mrs.Sally Kulkis, Mrs.Muriel Lord and Janie Buford. They became real good friends and we correspond on every Christmas. We would like you to have these Jack & Gail for your keepsakes.
Isn't it amazing that someone took the time to write down the names of the 4 woman from the Carribbean Cruise? I'm intriqued how Gail and her Husband married 33 years back in 1964 which would have them married in 1931???. That was 36 years ago! Here this little plate is now displayed for Blogging and sits proudly in my living room.
