Seller's Description:
G (Has average wear to head and heel of outer spine, with a small tear at top; flyleaves are well tanned; pages are aging but are clear. ) Blue embossed and decorated cloth covers. 496 pp., color frontispiece and 150+ illustrations, and 200+ tables of marks. "As far as is possible in the limits of this volume, the subject of old English earthenware has been dealt with in order to show how peculiarly national the productions of the potter have been. The collection of old English earthenware, in the main, is still within the reach of those who have slender purses. English china during the last decade has reached prohibitive prices, and there is every likelihood that old English earthenware will in the near future become of unprecedented value. I have carefully refrained from confining my treatment of the subject to rare museum examples which are unlikely to come under the hand of the average collector. It is necessary to have the ideal in view, but it must be borne in mind that such specimens must always be ideal to the larger number of collectors. I have, therefore, without belittling the old potters' art, given considerable attention to the golden mean in the realm of old earthenware to be collected." (preface) Please note that this is an original printed copy, and not an e-book, facsimile paperback, or print-on-demand title.
