Description: Lavishly illustrated in color and black-and-white, this early out-of-print book is a pictorial survey of Pfaltzgraff American pottery and stoneware. PFALTZGRAFF – America’s Potter published in conjunction with an exhibition at the Historical Society of York County, York, PA, 1989. “Beginning with its German origins in the early 1800’s, the history of Pfaltzgraff is traced through five generations of family ownership and management. As the business developed from the one or two man pottery operations of the 19th century, to the earliest factory, to today’s nationally known company, Pfaltzgraff’s rich history is told through text and illustrations.” ”The name Pfaltzgraff means different things to different people. There are the Pflatzgraff collectors who fill their homes with dinnerware and accessories from Pfaltzgraff’s current product lines. There are the Pfaltzgraff collectors who specialize in the comical Muggsy line of the 1950’s, or the Art Pottery line of the 1930’s. There are the yellowware collectors, the spongeware collectors and those who concentrate on the blue-decorated, salt-glazed stoneware of the latter half of the 19th century. Each piece is Pfaltzgraff…and each piece represents but a small segment of the long history of the Pfaltzgraff Co.” This rare out-of-print book is an invaluable guide to the collector, dealer, or historian of American pottery and stoneware. 9.2” x 9.25” hardback with dust cover in very good+ condition. 128 pages.
