Ft. Edward, NY / Athens, NY, 1859 / 1884. As issued.
. Good but with caveats: the Fort Edward price list has been mounted; the Athens Pottery list has a hole with loss of words around the printed word "Wholesale" in the general title but is otherwise in very good condition.. Folios, printed recto only in double columns; meas. appx. 323 x 204 mm (Ft. Edward) and 370 x 205 mm. (Athens). The Ft. Edward pottery list is illustrated showing 12 different shapes - varied use - with brush-work decoration (small illustrations). Each price list is finished with autograph embellishments representing an individual order showing individual and total prices paid, date, and the buyer identified.
Two identified price lists acting as sales receipts. Both provide an extensive list of the stoneware inventory on offer. In the case of the Fort Edward pottery, operated by George Satterlee, the list was issued in the first year of what proved to be a short tenure of operation. The Athens Pottery list, under the direction of Nathan Clark, began operation in the 1840s, has all kinds of pots, jugs, pans, and earthenware on offer. See Ketchum, American Stoneware.
