Help! I need help identifying this plate?
« on: July 07, 2013, 01:19:35 pm »
Looking for a little help identifying this plate which, as you can see, is broken. I was hoping to find a replacement but know nothing about it.  There are no visible markings on the back as it is covered by a hanging sticker.

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Watch out for squirrels!!!!

Mathers, you have a duplicate posting on this...so am putting this twice

Suggest that you remove the hanging sticker!!!

Several ways to remove:  Hair dryer - blow hot heat on for about a minute then try and remove.
  Other methods:  nail polish remover, Goo Gone, Rubbing Alcohol, etc.

Really need to see markings on the back!!!

Ah, i thought I might have to do that. The thing is it's not my plate - it was broken while house sitting for my mother-in-law (yeah, I know) and if I take the sticker off it'll break into even more pieces and look worse than it does now (damage control and all that!)

I had hoped that someone may have recognised the design or style, although I realise it's not as easy as all that.

The sticker is pretty heavy duty and glued in place so heat might be the best way of getting it off, i guess...

Thanks again

damage control...are you winding us up.....as for looking worse than it is.....stick on a pair of rose tinted specs and you,ll never notice....either that or buy yourself a tube of super glue...and take G,acres advice.....me i,d bin it....

Mathers...that's a big OOOPPPPPSSSS.  Even tho' the price most likely isn't monetarily valuable...it has lotsa' sentimental value which is beyond $$$.  And then to top it off...your mother-in-law....  No words....  My heart aches for you!

Try the blow dryer!  It is amazing how well it works on most glues.

Wullie, in this day and age, Humpty could be put back together again.  Back then they didn't have super glue or gorilla glue!
