We’ve all been guilty of making a typo here or there, but one manufacturer took things to the next level when they made a typo on souvenirs celebrating the Queen of England’s ‘Jubbly’ year.
10 800 pieces of crockery, including tea sets, mugs and decorate plates got something of a limited edition print, AKA the ultimate typo.
The souvenir products were made with the intention to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II’s 70-year reign, also known as her Platinum Jubilee celebration – or ‘Jubbly’ as the print on the products put it.
The products were bought from Changzhouint Merchandise, a manufacturer in China who attributed the mistake to mistranslation as Business Insider notes.
The company that was originally supposed to purchase the goods opted out, but another company saw an opportunity and decided to brand the goods as something of a limited edition.
Wholesale Clearance UK who buy and sell stock and goods from excess companies hopped on the opportunity to continue sales.
“what could be more unique than our limited-edition misprinted crockery?” said Karl Baxter, the company’s managing director.
The Queen will celebrate her Platinum Jubilee on February 6.
