All 6 show different views from a bullfighting arena - very rare. In all the decades I've loved searching out these 'talking plates' that tell a story, I've never seen this theme. Others say the same. Popular in their era, the 'sport' isn't as accepted now, but the plates from the past memorialize a very long tradition. The transferware plates have the most beautiful border pattern in blue - everyone's favorite! Cabinet or wall plates for decor, they have survived beautifully. Full measurements noted on photos.

Very good to excellent condition for age and type, they tell a story of a tradition of Spain. There are no chips, no hairlines, no cracks on any of the 6. One has a light line across the black transfer which looks more like a fold in application of the transfer, or perhaps a light abrasion. I find nothing else to note. They are made by GIEN, and each bears the crown mark on back.
