Object of the Week - Souvenir Ware c. 1920's

This Dungarvan souvenir cup and saucer is stamped SS which probably indicates that it was made by Sampson Smith Ltd., of Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, England, who were in business from 1846 to 1963.

These souvenir items were sold in shops such as Merrick & Ruddell in Main Street, Dungarvan.
