The ABC of collecting old English china, giving short history of the English factories, and showing how to apply tests for unmarked china before 1800
A beginner's collecting guide to English porcelain and earthenware before 1800, written by J. F. Blacker and published in London in 1908 for amateur curio buyers learning to identify unmarked wares. Small line and stipple wood engravings show teapots, cups, plates, covered jars and figure groups in heavy shadow, useful as compact object silhouettes, painted-border patterns and chinoiserie vignettes.
