Harker Pottery produced popular ceramic tableware for over 130 years, including early Rockingham, Yellowware, sturdy Ironstone, and delicate Pate Sur Pate. Over 800 beautiful color photos display their dinnerware, kitchenware, rolling pins, shaving sets, tea and punch sets, and ABC plates in well documented shapes. Decorations include Flow Blue and a wide variety of popular decals. Over 200 images of the manufacturer's different marks provide important dating references for the huge output of this prolific East Liverpool, Ohio, company. A history of the company places the Harker Pottery among other important American firms. It has a bibliography, glossary, index, and values in the captions. Every American pottery collector and anyone with fond childhood memories of eating from grandmother's Harker dishes will enjoy this book.
Barker Pottery Book is Tops for Accurate Information
Published by Kim H. , 1 year ago
I got to meet the Grays in person and saw proofs of this book while under development. These people know their material and live with a house full of not just Harker but oh so many of the other potteries of East Liverpool, Ohio. They are considered the go-to couple for information and examples of these potteries and what they produced. They created careful and accurate prices for each item. Highly recommend!
