Ronald G. Cooper, English Slipware Dishes, London, 1984, pp. 104 & 105 lists twenty-two signed dishes by Samuel Malkin (1668-1741) where he illustrates the sun tree dish in the Royal Scottish Museum, Edinburgh (pl. 252) and the example in the Burnap Collection, William Rockhill Nelson Gallery, Kansas City, Missouri. The closest, however, to the present example is that at Colonial Williamsburg, see Leslie B. Grigsby, English Slip-Decorated Earthenware at Williamsburg, Williamsburg, 1993, p. 43, pl. 50.
