Description: Up for bid is an original vintage pre-owned James Yates Victorian Pewter Tankard Mug VR 1 Pint Size Circa 1860-70s England. Found at an estate sale of a collector of old pewter. A fine double "C" handled Pint tulip export Pewter mug or tankard by James Yates. This is a nice piece of English pewter that dates to the 1870s - 1880s era when Victorian pewter was stamped with the Queen's mark in England of the crown and VR for Victoria Regina. It is a pint size and is marked twice with the crown and VR and corresponding numbers as well as pint. It is about 5 inches high and about 3 1/2 inches diameter at the base. It’s in good condition with no holes or cracks, a few light dings, and the patina is original - I have not cleaned it. A lovely piece of antique pub pewter! It is also stamped with a crowned 'X' mark inside on the bottom. This mark was introduced to show that the pewter was good quality. James Yates worked in Birmingham from 1837 to 1891. In early years with or as proprietor of Yates Birch & Spooner absorbing both the Meeson & Grove businesses. He worked on his own account solely from 1860-1882, as James Yates. He was a prolific producer and exporter. (especially to Australia) Please see pictures for more condition details or e-mail with any questions. Thank you for looking. Happy bidding!!! Items condition: Please take a moment to enlarge & view all the detailed photos, as they are the true description for the condition of this item and override any written description above. I'm selling mostly used items purchased at Estate Sales. I try to describe the best I can but the photos capture what may have been missed in the written description. I try to describe everything to the best of my knowledge but very few things I sell are Brand New and it will be stated in the listing if they are new. If it looks like a stain, nick, or fading in the photographs then it probably is, but I believe the condition of these items is part of their charm.
