Vintage china plate with scenic view of the old Chicago University circa 1857. This was made for Carson, Pirie, Scott by Royal Cauldon - England, 20th century. It's dinner plate size, about 10 1/2" in diameter.

This has a lot of glaze crazing and one hairline crack - it's not in the best of condition, though fine for display I think. It's a rare scene I've never seen before (original held by the Chicago Historical Society), and I love the all brown color, such an elegant look.
