A set of five rare pottery plates by Crown Ducal, featuring popular Art Deco cocktails, Martini, Manhattan, Bronx, Side Car and Old Fashion. Each is represented by a lady whose appearance in some way suggests the name of the cocktail. This set is quite rare, especially in the sienna color (most have black transfer decoration). The backs are stamped with Crown Ducal's mark.
