[Mccoypottery-talk] Question about Loy-Nel-Art Pottery

[Patti]

some of those  companies in earlier days used paper labels  and to find  one with  a
label intact ot  partially is very rare the pottery was bought for use  back in the day
so nobody really thought  that  a  label was all that important .
Yes  some weller and other   are  similar to the  older  stuff but  anyone  trained  well
can  spot the differences  even   if they are very subtle. I am  still learning  myself
with the art  lines mostly even after   so many years  of selling  and  collecting  I can
still be  wrong  unless I   can find  a  reference  and  look it up.
Along the line I  took a turn into  dealing with   all types of collectibles   and lost
my main focus.  Pottery  and Porcelain  Is a  very long  study  becasue there is so much
and so many companies  that were around maybe for a  short period then  bought  by
others  .
And I  also  remind   people not every  piece of pottery  is documented  in   guides
much more is being  found  all the time  but  every  piece  may never  be  shown   and
some will still be   found  long after   the  astute  collectors  / experts are gone .
