Title: is a real Roseville or is it a fake?
Post by: cee_jay on March 30, 2013, 03:26:09 pm

Hello,
I bought this at a garage sale think WOW a Roseville, only to find out this pattern was only made in gold and green
but I was told by a friend that Roseville did test patterns that aren't in books and this could be one of them, looking at a book of the signature it looks very good. but I'm not really good at that type of stuff.
also I know a mark has the USA on it, but from research some didn't have the USA, the other part is it on has 7", but again this is a true mark.
i'm SO confused!
what do you think?
thanks

OK its a fake  :'(  no such thing as blue.
I guess its that test thing my friend told me about ( she was knew a lot about Roseville, I just cant ask her, she died) it keeps making me think it might be one.
Thank you for the web pages
