Shelley China 12960 - This was purchased by my Mother & Father In Law before the war from Spencers (Changed to Eatons) in downtown Vancouver on their lunch break before they were wed. We inherited the set. It is a place setting for 10 with a meat plater, covered vegetable serving bowl, serving bowl and gravy boat with saucer. As you can see in the first picture, 3 of the bread and butter plates were put in the dishwasher by my Mother In Law and the colour has faded. 3 teacups were broken over the years as was 3 soup cups. I love this set and would love to be able to replace some of the missing and faded pieces. There is no name on it and I have never been able to find any pieces or what the value of this set is.
