Antique Questions Forum / Brown Betty Teapots
« on: September 22, 2007, 07:20:03 am »
We were going through my Great Grand Mothers house upon her moving and found three teapots that were unusual to us.. Upon researching the internet we found out that they are called Brown Betty teapots from the World Wars.. They have a card with them that states.. This English Rockingham Teapot was manufactured in the Midlands by courageous British women, replacing men who are employed in the defense of their country. The sale of these tea pots in America establishes further credit to apply against the war material.
Each of the teapots has written in gold on the bottom.. World War II Made in England Escorted to USA By Royal Navy.... Then in a blueish colored paint there is a number 4169
What is the significance of the number and the value of the teapot
Your help is appriciated
