Mintons produced quite a number of views of
holiday spots most we see from Edinburgh and a
few from Shakespeare country in Warwickshire,
next we see a few from the Derbyshire Peak

Britain. How many were done is not known but new
ones arise occasionally, mostly found on teapot

tiles are relatively uncommon. Verso perfectly clean, usual legend
