[Mccoypottery-talk] Hull LRRH CJ

[Ohio Pottery & Glassware]

Barb:
That is the general consensus plus the Hull collectors at convention last
year said that the really white one's are the later Regal produced ones and
the creamier colored clay is Hull.  I can say that when I have had the
opportunity to hold the 2 different colored clay ones together that the
whiter one is also a bit lighter.
I still think that the jar that said it was restored is a fake.  I saw the
decals for sale somewhere last year so they are available.  I believe it was
in the Hull category on eBay.  Also Regal made the Old McDonald series which
goes beautifully with the LRRH pieces as well.  Colors are the same and
everything!
Hull did decorate the early ones (at least) which are marked usually patent
pending instead of with the patent # on them.

This doesn't answer your question -- but here is a copy of the LRRH patent.
http://collectibles.about.com/library/articles/blpatentlrrh1.htm

What I was told about Regal vs Hull was a little different. The dealer
referenced here has one of  the largest LRRH collections in the US. If not
the largest, it's pretty darn close. He has also been a dealer in pottery,
etc. for many years.
