The selected object appears to be a vintage blue and white souvenir collector plate featuring Alaska scenes, likely produced by Vernon Kilns or a similar mid-century maker, measuring approximately 10.5 inches in diameter. No hanger included

The Maker

While the original store label covers the factory stamp, the front design, rope-like rim pattern, and historical transfer text match plates manufactured by Vernon Kilns (on their "Ultra" shape) or their closely related contemporary counterpart, Westco Kilns. Both companies produced these exact illustrated transferware designs featuring the iconic central Kodiak Bear surrounded by localized regional landmarks like the Juneau Capital, Dutch Harbor, and the Sitka Navy Air Base. 

The preservation of this original, dated 1947 shipping label adds significant historical charm and documentation to a classic piece of Alaskan travel memorabilia

The Shipping Label Premium: Standard collectors of porcelain sometimes view stickers or label damage to the back glaze as a flaw. However, for enthusiasts of military history or Alaskan territorial memorabilia, a beautifully intact, typed shipping label from April 3, 1947, adds historical provenance that can push the value up to $40 or more to the right niche buyer.
