Alfred Meakin Gravy Boat



On a very, very rainy day in Keynsham last week I did a trawl of the charity shops, and came across this lovely 1950's gravy boat by Alfred Meakin. My friend Victoria collects gravy boats and jugs and it was her keen eye that spied it first, but her husband has told her she has a problem and has to stop buying them and so I bought this one instead, for the sum of three pounds. This could be the start of a downward spiral into gravy boat collecting.
