Hi guys,
It's possible I posted this before but I don't remember getting any replies.
I found this shard of what appears to be a potlid.
Do any of you know what this was...any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Doug

I have not seen a cow like that on any of the UK lids I've collected or seen. Could be the side of a crock or jug.

Thanks for the guesses.....looks like it will truly remain an unknown. I just thought potlid because of what you can see of the lettering looks very similar to potlid lettering style and placement.

Oh well..thanks anyway

Hey Doug,

I'm wondering if that cow might be a Scottish Highland...

This shard is really bothering me, I know I've seen the intact item before, perhaps posted on the forum a while ago.

I may be dreaming it up, but I thought there was a discussion or comments about the strikingly anthropomorphic nature of the Cow's teeth and subdued smile.

I'm thinking it's a potlid for a Beef Marrow jar, if that helps move this along...[;)]
