Hi and welcome to the board. Your pitchers carry the mark for Arthur Wood that dates from 1934 - there is a timeline of the backstamps used by the company here: http://www.thepotteries.org/mark/w/woodarthur.html. They were a manufacturer of earthenware at the Bradwell Works in Longport, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire - potted history here: http://www.thepotteries.org/allpotters/1097.htm.  Usually hand-decorated pieces carry a painter's mark and a pattern number on the base as well.  Wood's are well known for their jugs and pitchers.
