Searching for utilitarian pottery is becoming one of the most exciting pastimes for many families. Some collectors are specializing in crocks and jugs manufactured by different potters. Others may only collect whiskey jugs, wax sealers, freehand decorated pottery, red war or pottery stenciled with fruit or flower design.

The author of THIS long out of print book has attended many auctions and has made purchases at very low prices, but this only happens when other knowledgeable collectors are NOT present.

This book covers: Location of Kilns, How Pottery was made, stacking the kiln for firing, odds and ends, decorating with Slip Cup Quill, Tanware pottery, decorating freehand, Pottery decorated with Stencil and Freehand; Surface decorated with Stencil and advertising crocks, and of course, miscellaneous pottery items -- all pictured and priced. Black & White photographs throughout!  Privately Published
