Rare Maling plaques
The top right plaque titled 'Rev John Wesley AM', has the impressed Maling mark shown beneath it. The bottom centre plaque (unmarked) is an unusually small size (4.75 x 5.75 in). They are the only two plaques I've seen with this transfer.
The plaques are hard to date. The top centre plaque has a transfer that's also found on jugs, from the 1830s (see below).

Prepare to meet thy god
This extremely rare Maling plaque (above left) with hand-painted text appears to be a copy of plaques made in Sunderland by Dixon, Austin & Co (above right).
The impressed marks, belong to the plaques on their left. The rectangular plaques are unmarked.
