Re: Davenport "Agriculture"

Hi Mary Ann. The "Agriculture" pattern has at least five different scenes, and is known with two different borders. All the scenes are rural but three depict horses being used for plowing. Yours is #10678 in our database. I'm sure you already know this but the numbers on either side of the impressed anchor are for the date the plate itself was manufactured, I can't read yours clearly but might be 38 or 39? For 1838 or 1839. The printed pattern likely dates about the same time.
