A thoroughly researched subject.,

This review is from: Spode Transfer Printed Ware 1784-1833 (Hardcover)
The scope of the book is narrow, but that's already known by the title.
Despite this, there are some excellent generalised chapters on the mechanics of early transfer printing processes, with photographs. One of the authors did the bat-printing process himself, all photographed, in order to revive that lost art for this book. Hundreds of patterns, part patterns, borders and shapes are illustrated, to help identify those Spode pieces that were made before the Copelands appeared. Students of early transferware in general, and of 'pre-Copeland' Spode in particular, will find this a satisfying, even fascinating book, written by two men who really know their stuff.

This review is from: Spode Transfer Printed Ware 1784-1833 (Hardcover)
This is a lovely book with pictures of the many patterns. Spode an old English company with a long history and the book lets you see that. Most of it is now made in China, a major change in the company so it is nice to see the origins.
