Shawnee Pottery : The Full Encyclopedia With Value
Guide
Part of an editor's review - The dinnerware, cookie jars, vases, salt " peppershakers, and figural characters of Shawnee
Pottery of Zanesville, Ohio were popular items while they were being produced between 1936 and 1963. Shawnee's high quality items were well priced for the mass-produced pottery market.
Their innovative marketing and production techniques and designs were often copied
by others, making them a real leader in the field. Never before have so many
of the people who played key roles in the history of Shawnee Pottery contributed
accurate and previously unpublished information for a book.
