Blue and White Jar with Neptune Theme Blue and White Jar Makers Mark Blue and White Jar Base Marks & Numbers

I found this item at a thrift store and was intrigued by its beauty and theme. There is a figure, that I assume to be Neptune, riding a sea serpent along the outside of the jar.

There are several markings on the bottom. The maker's mark has a sligtly mis-shapen rectangle with a T shaped figure inside.

The horizontal line of the T hangs low on the vertical line. The vertical line reaches outside of the box and is crossed with another horizontal line. There is a small arrow or initial shape at the top of this line.

Near this mark the letter "A" is handwritten into the surface. The numbers 53, 32, and 5 are also stamped as well as 1L.

Any information that you could give me about this piece would be very much appreciated.

Thanks, Julie

Upon further examination, I would say that the maker's mark resembles an arrow inside of a square.
