Shelley Mabel Lucie Attwell

In 1926 Shelley commissioned the children's book illustrator Mabel Lucie Attwell to design a range of nursery ware. She had recently published a number of books featuring small elves in green suits which she called 'Boo Boos'. These, together with her classic chubby faced children, became the themes portrayed on plates, mugs, dishes and even children's potties. Accompanied by a few lines of verse and each piece with a facsimile signature, they have now become very collectable. For a good selection visit Premier Antiques
