The first two plaques, 167 mm diameter. The third plaque is 160 mm. The first plaque has the 'C. C&Co' impressed mark for Cornfoot, Colville & Co, of the North Shields Pottery. The third plaque is attributed to that pottery on the basis of the similarity of decoration and lettering.

The first plaque, 167 mm diameter. Cornfoot, Colville & Co, of the North Shields Pottery (later known as Low Lights), produced transfer‐printed plaques 1829–1832. Press anouncements show that the firm continued as Cornfoot, Carr & Co from 1832–1838. The above plaques have the 'C. C&Co' impressed mark, which could have been used by either partnership. 

The top three with the impressed mark 'C. C&Co.' (see bottom left). 

Although the two plaques above have no impressed mark, like the C, C & Co plaques they are 167mm in diameter. The colour, quality and application of the lustre is also very similar. Compare the C, C & Co details (centre) with details from similar circular Scott plaques (right). They are distinguishable from their Scott counterparts in that the 'aura', around Wesley in particular, is more bobbly – almost like Brussels sprouts on a stalk. The lettering in the titles on the C, C & Co transfer has longer, more elegant, serifs (click on the details to enlarge and to move between them).

All of the plaques above date from c1832 and have the  'C.C&Co' impressed mark.  Read more about their subjects – Queen Adelaide, King William IV, and Earl Grey – on the portraits page.
