Although I realize this is the paper/photo section I thought I would show an unusual flea market find on Saturday, which is a ceramic plate dated 1942.

the plate was given as a Christmas present and is manufactured by a Nowegian company. -
here is a close-up of the makers logo and I thought it rather unusual.Comment

Strange that Vatne is in larger letters and bold, it's a small village of no importance at all, i can only assume the design was also commisioned for a unit with it's base there and they simply changed the wording to suit other units.Collecting German award documents, other paperwork and photos relating to Norway and Finland.Comment
