EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Humorous Take on the Patriotic Spirit: A W.H. Goss China Plate from the Era of World War I" This W.H. Goss china plate, adorned with a gold border, showcases a humorous transfer depicting the flags of the Allied Powers from the early 20th century. The inscription on the plate reads, "To Cook a German: Cook on a British Kitchener. Use a Japanese Enamelled Saucepans. Grease well with Russian Tallow. Flavour with a Little Jellicoe. Servia !! Up with French Capers and Brussels Sprouts." The plate, which is in good condition, dates back to circa 1915 and is an excellent example of commemorative war ware. The transfer's design reflects the patriotic sentiments and dark humor prevalent during World War I. The Allied flags displayed include those of Great Britain, France, Russia, and Italy, symbolizing the unity and camaraderie among the Allied Powers. The inscription on the plate offers a lighthearted take on cooking a German enemy, with references to British Kitchener, Japanese enamelled saucepans, Russian tallow, and Admiral Jellicoe. The mention of Servia, a small Balkan country that was part of the Allied Powers, adds to the historical context of the piece. The plate's design also includes a subtle nod to the French with the mention of capers, a common ingredient in French cuisine, and brussels sprouts, a vegetable that was popular in the British Isles during this time. This delightful piece of historical pottery provides a fascinating glimpse into the military, naval, and cultural history of the First World War.
