Per: antique-hq.com "To insure that production demands were met, the Doulton brand outsourced production to other artists and studios. Some of these artists and studios simply signed their works, others such as Robert Allen Design Studio added their own pattern codes alongside the Doulton Pattern codes." which is RA 1192 as shown on the photo.

And per: potteryhistories.com "From 1928 the earlier ‘standard’ mark with lion, crown and ‘D’ motif was ‘reintroduced’. The mark, however, was supplemented by a date number related to the year of production. A prominent ‘1’ signifies 1928 and the numbering continue to ‘30’ in 1957. The simple rule is that adding 1927 to the number give the year of production." Adding the 12 on the cup in the photo becomes 1939.
