This is the definitive text on Santa Barbara Ceramic Design art pottery with lots of detail on the history of the company, the potters, artists and the techniques used in creating and selling the pottery. It's a must for anyone wanting to collect this pottery or deal in this pottery. The author did extensive research on just about everyone who had a role in the pottery and details chronologically the growth and changes in the pottery. There are many details on the markings of the pottery as well with explanations of special markings all important to valuing special examples. Lots of pictures of all types of things produced by the pottery as well including items from special collections.
