El pequeño Jack Horner
Se sentó en el rincón,
a comer un pastel de Navidad;
Él metió su pulgar,
Y sacó una ciruela,
Y dijo: «¡Qué buen chico que soy!"
El juego tiene tres platos y dos fuentes
The set includes three little plates and two trays

La historia cuenta que Richard Whiting, Obispo de Glastonbury, un pueblo en Somerset, Inglaterra, temía que Enrique VII expropiara los monasterios católicos y mandó a su mayordomo, Jack Horner, con documentos de propiedad de algunos de ellos esperando que esto puediera evitarlo
The story goes that Richard Whiting, Bishop of Glastonbury, a town in Somerset, England, was afraid that Henry VII would expropiate Catholic monasteries and sent his steward, Jack Horner, with title deeds of some of them hoping it could help to avoid it

Pero Jack Horner, en lugar de entregar todos esos documentos -que llevaba escondidos en la tarta- a Enrique VIII, sacó el más valioso, el del monasterio del señorío de Mells, que sería la ciruela que sacó de la torta.
The deeds had been secreted in a pie but, instead of giving them to the King, Little Jack Horner was said to have stolen the deeds to the manor of Mells, the real "plum" of the twelve manors
Richard Whiting fue acusado de alta traición, por no adherir a la iglesia anglicana y ejecutado en 1539 y Jack Horner se habría convertido en proprietario del Señorío de Mells.
Acá, atrás de las bandejitas, la versión de Hilda Boswell
Richard Whiting was convicted of treason and was found guilty and executed in 1539 and the Manor of Mells became the property of Jack Horner.
Here, besides the little trays, Hilda Boswell's illustration
Pero hay otras versiones del pequeño Jack, tanto en vajilla como en ilustraciones
But there are more versions of Little Jack, in both children ware and storybooks
This is by Margaret W. Tarrant
Miremos un poco nás de cerca la taza
Now let's a close-up to the cup
and the saucer (I found them in different times, which makes it better indeed...!)
Now another cup and plate where Little Jack is walking with his pie and pulling the rocking horse that stands by him in the previous one
Para las que les gusta la vajilla acá van las marcas, son ingleses los dos, el primer jueguito es Shell Ware
For those who love china, here the backstamps, both from England, the first by Shell Ware
