This volume features articles on chamber pots, the Talbot Hotel Pit group, terracotta gravemarkers from New Jersey and New York, Staffordshire potters and their emigration to America in the 1840s, the pottery of Henry Piercy, the potters and pottery of Morgan's Town, Virginia, ceramic and porcelain representations of Uncle Tom's Cabin, Long Island Redware, and the ceramics of Lucio Fontana.
