Two other recorded examples of this model exist. One was exhibited by Garry Atkins 'An Exhibition of English Pottery 1650 - 1800', Exhibition Catalogue, March 12th-19th 1991, no. 3, where he suggests a Liverpool attribution. The other, formerly in Lord Revelstoke's Collection and thought to date from the 17th Century date, is illustrated in Ross E. Taggart, 'The Frank P. and Harriet C. Burnap Collection of English Pottery in the William Rockhill Nelson Gallery', Exhibition Catalogue, Kansas City, Missouri, 1967, no. 103.
