We have a Spode Aesop's Fable Not Listed Among Yours and an erroneous mark Posted by Rev. Gregory Carlson on July 16, 2026, 10:19 pm Friends, I am the developer and overseer of a very large collection of books and objects presenting fables like those of Aesop. It belongs to Creighton University in Omaha, NE, USA. Among the collection are some 29 pieces of 19th-Century Spode. Your page of Spode patterns and shapes is very helpful. As I review it, I notice that we have a tureen lid featuring "The Tortoise and Hare," a fable not included in your list. We also have a "Dog and the Sheep" bowl labeled "The Peacock and the Crane." Might it be good to picture our "Tortoise and Hare" tureen in your helpful group of "Aesop's Fables" patterns?

It would be fantastic to be able to include your view of the "Hare and the Tortoise", thank you! You could either post that picture here, or send it to me at otlink@aol.com and I will see it gets recorded. Measurements would be good to have as well. Thanks again so much, hope to talk to you soon!
