Set Sarraguemines opera series plates

Set of twelve collector plates. Sarraguemines opera series plates, made circa 1920 to 1930. This French factory was best known for its hand-decorated faience pottery, but they also purchased blank porcelains, from nearby German factories, and transfer-printed the "blanks" in various series themes. Yours are Wagner operas; they did other operas and composers, actors and actresses, cheeses, peasant costumes, villages, and other themes. The crowned shield mark is the 20th century Sarreguemines mark, and the blue M identifies the Maier factory in Poschetzau, Germany. Single plates, in perfect condition. Each plate measures 8 inches across.

Thank you for your quick reply. I am really shocked at the price. I knew many people here wanted it, but probably figured I didn't know what I had and they wanted to buy it for nothing. I am glad I held on to it.
Thanks again!
