Description
Up for your consideration is an absolutely beautiful Scammell circa 1943 Netherlands Aid Society Service Plate to commemorate the birth of Princess Margiet of the Netherlands. The inscription on the front loosely translates to:
Scion of Orange
So Far from Home,
May God Bestow Three Gifts on Thee:
A Cockerel Crowing Holland's Victory,
A Banner Flowing for Orange's Liberty,
Two Clogs to Stand on Holland's Soil,
As Our People Lovingly Thee Extol.
May God Bestow These Gifts on Thee!

It measures about 10-3/8" wide. It is in great condition with no chips or cracks or excessive wear.
