Hi Henri,
You must have been reading my mind! I have a 13.75 x 11 inch platter by CJM with the title "MOSQUE OF OMAR." I had seen the "LAODICIA" plate in Peetra Williams' book with the same mark, but have never seen anything else. I suspected a series but had no proof. Just yesterday, while placing photos in a PageMaker file for a book I'm currently writing, I attempted -- once more -- to find some additional information about the platter, or other views. Of course, there was none! I toyed with the idea of posting a query on the TCC website but had to prepare for a visit from my brother and his wife. Now they're napping and I'm checking email -- and the TCC mesage board. There you were!
So add "The Mosque of Omar" to your list. I'm also anxious to hear if anyone else can add items! If you'd like pitures, I'd be happy to send them. By the way, my platter is pink. I would certainly be interested in knowing other colors. This is quite exciting; I think the entry in my book will now need another page.
Thanks for your question,
Margie Williams
