Can anyone tell me about a plate stamped "ANDARRA" from Johnson Bros. England? After bringing it home, I noticed that the pattern name is stamped using quotes, and I haven't been able to find that name in my reference materials. The closest I've found is ANDORRA, however never stamped using quotes. I'm hoping it's authentic -- I purchased it from a reputable dealer and it's the first piece in my "collection." Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Hi, I have a "Johnson Brothers, Classic English Dinnerware",by Bob Page & Dale Frederiksen. On pg 195--a backstamp with, "CLOVER TIME", which I think is the pattern name,is in quotes below the cartouch. Within the cartouche, top line reads Windsor Ware. 2nd line reads F.B.& C. 3rd line reads Johnson Bros. and 4th line reads ENGLAND. Andorra is the only pattern name that I found. You might try uploading a picture of the back stamp to kovels.com for an apprasial. I hope that this helps. Sincerely, Mary M.
