The above left plaque is attributed to Sheriff Hill from the 1840s. The above right plaque comes from a Tyneside pottery, probably Fell, and has the same transfer as the Sheriff Hill plaque. Both Maling and Fell made plaques of this form, and are known to have used lustre decoration over the central transfer. However, the low positioning of the hanging holes is a feature associated with Fell, although on this plaque they are, atypically for Fell, spaced far apart. The circular and two orange plaques below come from a different transfer plate. The orange plaques, made after 1870, are attributed to Ball's Deptford Pottery. Note the differences in punctuation between the two transcribed verses. There is a large diagonal scratch on the copper plate that shows on these later versions above the verse.

REMEMBER THE LORD THY GOD
Three unmarked plaques attributed the Albion Pottery, Tyneside, run by Galloway and Atkinson c1864. The verse, 'Remember The Lord Thy God', also appears on a transfer with a cross, within a leaf border, from an as-yet unidentified pottery, likely Tyneside (see below). It pairs with a similar transfer reading 'Praise The Lord'.
SEEK YE THE LORD
The left plaque attributed to Thomas Fell. The other plaque, with very neat green-flecked decoration, could be either Fell or Carr & Patton.
