A rare 19th c. Staffordshire pottery child's nursery mug, with a famous Louis Wain cats design, c. 1890. The verse reads: "I always take my bath outside the tub than inside when nurse isn't here, then I don't get wet you see and there isn't so much damage of taking cold".
 
This particular design rarely comes on the market, especially in this colourway. In very good condition with no cracks of chips. Worn glaze to base from use.
