This book was prepared for an exhibition held at Christies
New York in the summer of 1987. The 200 pieces of American
art pottery were selected from private collections of
American Ceramic Arts Society members. The book is printed
in full color featuring pottery by Grueby, Teco, Rookwood,
Marblehead, Ohr, Van Briggle, and others.
Dr. Martin Eidelberg of Rutgers University served as editor
for the book. The book presents a series of essays by
Robert A. Ellison, Jr. on the history, techniques, and
aesthetics of American art pottery. The catalog descriptions
were written by Betty Hut. Both new and experienced collectors
will find this comprehensive and beautiful book a valuable
addition to their Arts and Crafts and art pottery libraries.
