California Potteries: The Complete Book (Schiffer Book for Collectors)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
From the 1930s to the 1960s numerous potteries in Southern California turned out some of the finest figural pottery ever made in America. For decades these beautiful wares lingered in obscurity, but now they have rocketed to the forefront of collectibility. They are illustrated here with over 800 color photographs covering more than 75 companies. Among them are companies such as Brayton Laguna, Kay Finch and Hedi Scoop. Lesser known companies like DeLee Art, Robert Simmons, and Walker-Renaker are represented too. Information about the potteries, tips for collectors, and a realistic price guide make this an indispensable book for collectors.
