...TIVOLI KOBENHAVN

"when the people are amusing themselves, they do not think about politics".

I know that I have said it before, but it still holds true...

One of the best parts of this whole 'stuff-journey', is the constant inspiration for learning... diving down that 'rabbit hole' of researching those 'new-to-us' items!!

This little plate is another example~

 At a quick glance, it appears to be yet another off-shoot of the distinctive BLUE WILLOW design.
Upon CLOSER inspection, you will notice...

LOTS of People in the graphics

and

Oriental Style Buildings

and

A rollercoaster in the Mountains??!

In fact, this plate is actually a SOUVENIR from TIVOLI KOBENHAVN (Copenhagen) depicting the "TIVOLI GARDENS" (Amusement Park & Pleasure Gardens)  Tivoli Gardens opened August 1843, and is the second oldest operating amusement park in the world!!
