Well, new as of 1934. We recently found this vintage advertisement for a new Wedgwood tea set in a University of Pennsylvania v. Yale Football program from 1934. The set was designed by Professor Edwin C. Taylor of the Yale School of Fine arts and the teapot includes a portrait of Elihu Yale in the border.

Priced at $6.50 for the ta pot and plates at $12.50 per dozen, it wasn’t necessarily cheap. Sets of this Wedgwood piece are difficult to find.

We offer a nice selection of Yale collectibles including Wedgwood items on our website:
