The plates are 10 1/4" in diameter and were an issue of 9500 pieces. This plate comes boxed in a lift top package with the original pamphlet. Of course, it is of the highest LENOX quality. This is a "hard to find" plate.  Does Not come with the certificate. I listed this item as NEW because it has not been displayed ever... It is VINTAGE but it is not "used". Only taken out of the box for photographing purposes. "Retired" IN ORIGINAL PACKAGING WITH PAMPHLET AND PLATE HANGER FOR DISPLAY. 35 YEARS OLD VINTAGE PIECE. NEVER DISPLAYED. MINT CONDITION~ Norman Adams is very well known for his wildlife in landscape settings. His originals in oil have graced the covers of outdoor magazines like Sports Afield and others.
