The cup & saucer are history and feature a view of The Church Of England All Souls Church as it was around the 1930s. We have always had a passion for history and believe that is part of the reason we deal in old wares, collectables and the odd antique.
The cup and saucer are For Sale $50 from Heaths Old Wares & Collectables Bangalow.
A little history to go with this collectable piece:
The foundation stone for The All Souls Church was laid by Bishop Anton in 1927 and the bricks used in construction were sold to parishoners for 3 Farthings each - not a lot in todays currency, but this raised considerable funds.
The church was concecrated around 1937 by Rt. Rev. J.W. Ashton, Bishop of Grafton and is located in Ashton Street Bangalow. (Information from 'Out of the Big Scrub Bangalow' by L.C. Furnell)
