26311. (souvenir plate) “Old Lighthouse, Manitowoc, Wisc.” c.1900

26311. (souvenir plate) An exceptionally rare, bright, decorated commemorative plate featuring a bright, colorful image of the “Old Lighthouse, Manitowoc, Wisc.” c. 1900. One of only a few of this area that I have had, this fairly large plate has a large 3 ½” full color image on white of the light tower and nearby 1 ½ story keeper’s dwelling. This rare display piece measures 5 7/8” in diameter and is enhanced by a decorative lace design and gilding around the edge. Nice detailed image but there is some light overall wear. Marked “Wheelock Made in Germany [for) O. Torrison Co., Manitowoc, Wis. Weimar”. Clean, overall light edge wear. (VG-). $76.
