Wheelock German Souvenir China Cup - Canal St., New Orleans, Louisiana
Shipping/Handling: $8.00 USD
Insurance: Included in shipping
Price for shipping to USA
A nice German porcelain souvenir china cup with a hand colored view of Canal Street in New Orleans, Louisiana about the turn of the 20th century, circa 1900. Note the idle trolley cars intermixed with horse drawn conveyances on the street. Long view that shows many buildings along both sides of the street and pedestrians out for the day. The cup measures 2 1/2 inches tall and 3 3/8 across the top, including the handle. Excellent condition with only light wear to the gold trim. No chips or cracks. Great coloration to the view.
When it came to me this cup was paired with a white porcelain saucer trimmed with gold, of about the same age but with no view of its own and no maker's mark. Although they probably are a marriage they look good together and the buyer will receive both. Back stamp on the cup reads: "Wheelock Made in Germany for C. R. Mason 134 Royal Street, New Orleans, LA."
