Royal Albert 1993 Christmas Sleighride plate in original box - includes Hanger

Description

This plate shows a cheerful wintery day, with children building a snowman and a couple waving goodbye as they ride away on a horse-drawn sleigh.  There's a dog running alongside and a red-breasted bird watching from a branch.  The plate border has a bright red holiday bow at the top and is full of holly leaves with berries, silver-grey bells, pine cones, greenery, and what looks like gingerbread hearts, stars, and balls.
8 3/8"
Although this Christmas plate was released in 1993, there is no date on the face of the plate, only on the back so it will always look current.

The box, as you can see, if far from perfect.  Looks like someone ripped of a price label along with a chunk of the finish.  The box is also bent out of shape a bit and I discovered the reason why when I opened it to take photos.  Inside was a plate hanger from England with a large rabbit on its packaging.  Plate from England plus hanger from England - seemed to me they ought to stay together so you get a bonus!
Take a look at our other plates listed - I'll combine shipping if you wait to pay until I send you an invoice with the totals.
