For the first time, this invaluable sourcebook will enable collectors to identify transfer-printed pottery patterns through visual references. Divided by subject category, the individual patterns are illustrated and identified in an easy-to-use, accessible manner. Captions accompany each color photo, revealing essential information on pattern, maker, date, relevant marks, and other important details. Right at the start, a timeline pinpoints significant events in the history of design, while at the end, a wide selection of unusual and common shapes are shown and an alphabetical list of factories provided.
