Royal Crownford, Alfred Meakin, Spode, Johnson Brothers, and

actively sought-after patterns, such as Crown Ducal's "Bristol,"
"Calico," "Castles," "Charlotte," "English Chippendale," "English
Scenery," "Friendly Village," "Historic America," "Italian,"
"Liberty Blue," "Old Britain Castles," "Rose Chintz," "Tonquin,"
"Tower," Vista," and more. Place settings and serving pieces as
well as rarer, more unusual pieces and those whose purpose was
decorative are intcluded. Detailed pricing tables for major
patterns and commentary of popular trends. All this and more make
this an indispensible, long awaited addition to the collector's
library.
