Antique tin tray, horses, mare and foal

Collectibles : Trays

 

Lovely lithography on this early tin tray, made by Davidson Manufacturing in Montreal. A tray I haven't seen often, it features the mare Meadow Queen and her dark bay foal standing in a flower strewn field. Two gorgeous Thoroughbred horses, a lovely image of new life. The tray is round, 11.5" in diameter and a bit over 1" deep, with a rolled lip on the edge. The tray is probably 1910 or so, Davidson merged with other companies in 1927, and the name was no longer used. It has wear, as you can see, but it is hard to find, and it's a beautiful display piece.
