Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Marks of American Potters The first attempt to figure the marks of American potters was made by the author in his Pottery and Porcelain of the United States, in 1893, in which less than one hundred varieties, found principally on the earlier wares, were in town. Previous to that time none of the manuals on potters´ marks contained any reference to the ceramic products of this country. The scope of this work, as originally planned, has been extended to include the principal marks, whether those of factories, patterns, workmen or decorators, which have been used in America down to the present day, on both artistic and commercial wares, for the double purpose of enabling collectors to recognize and identify examples which possess historical value, and to furnish users of modem household china with information which may be utilized in renewing or completing desired patterns. The majority of the cuts of marks here used first appeared in connection with a series of articles by the present writer in the China, Glass and Pottery Review, and some of the full-page illustrations, which were first published in Old China, are reproduced through courtesy of the publisher of that magazine. The earlier marks shown in these pages, and many of the ones, have been copied from examples of ware in the unique collection of American Pottery and Porcelain in the Pennsylvania Museum, Memorial Hall, Philadelphia.
