There is probably somebody on this site who will have answers to your various Augusta questions. We' re all happy to try! Regarding Dave the Slave Pottery - it is a very famous type of pottery that was made by a semi-literate slave. He often signed and dated his pottery, and sometimes even wrote simple rhyming verses on the large jugs and jars. I remember one of these beauties being appraised on Antiques Roadshow for over $5,000 (I don' t remember the exact amount). So the burning question is - do you have one of these special, rare pieces?? If so, PLEASE post a picture for all of us to admire! < Message edited by AndyR -- 4/6/2003 10:59:14 AM > (in reply to Guest) Post #: 2
