BS-Help St. Joris Dutch Tile

I have a Dutch Westraven tile from my father. I would like a value for it but am not having much luck on line. I did find a photo of it here, but the only info there is catalog number, date of issue and size.

I think it is one of a series of Scouting tiles that Westraven made. Westraven Pottery is in Utrecht, Netherlands. Can anybody help? Mudgaurd, Wolfgang, Auxuris?

If all else fails, I might be able to e mail Westraven and ask them---if anybody there speaks English (probably) because I have NO Dutch. Thanks all!

You've probably already looked at this site, Sorcha, but just in case, it looks as though there's a lot of general info: Tiles on the web

Good luck,

kat

Ok, it is a Scouting tile. St. George is the patron saint of Scouting......the photo I found is in a Scouting museum in Holland, but they don't have a value for it.

A value? Collectors buy it for 45 euro...
It is one of the best painted en most selled scouting tiles. So... one of the commons.
