If it comes up for sale please PM. There is one with a similar boarder advertising with the "letter from the diggings" pratt transfer. (in reply to TROG) Post #: 6

Thayer produced a handful of different stenciled porcelain pots for cosmetic preparations. Most of them are quite uncommon, and from what I understand rarer than most of the Wakelee lids. Hey Doug what's up with the Oakland site? The trade cards? _____________________________ Jason "Give me this here where I live in Glasgow, it's a hard town, I need the Stones." - TumblingDice1972 on youtube (in reply to Dabeel) Post #: 8

RE: Great Potlids from a Veteran Digger - 7/7/2010 5:07:51 AM    Gidday Posts: 148 Joined: 7/3/2004 Status: offline Hi LordBud, I think Thayers material is great too. These are a few I have found. Believe the lid above comes in two sizes. I need a small if anybody has a spare. [image][/image] (in reply to Lordbud) Post #: 9

RE: Great Potlids from a Veteran Digger - 7/8/2010 9:06:53 AM    Lordbud   Posts: 1781 Joined: 6/16/2005 From: San Jose Status: offline I have the two smaller size Thayer pots in the back row to the left. The other two examples with the larger stenciling with the street address are amazing. Real beauties. What does the stenciling on the pot say in the back row on the right side? _____________________________ Jason "Give me this here where I live in Glasgow, it's a hard town, I need the Stones." - TumblingDice1972 on youtube (in reply to Gidday) Post #: 10

I don't have any but am really tempted to start. That A.M. Cole you have pictured would be a nice first one, but afraid it's out of my price range. I have about 15 A.M. Cole bottles.  Thanks for posting....Ron _____________________________ Will Buy/Sell/Trade for for Kidney Embossed Bottles (in reply to Gidday) Post #: 17

From the deantiques website. Yes Gidday, Would you be so kind as to post some close ups of the pots/lids in the group picture? The upper left, the Wakelee's lower right and any others you'd like to share. Are those from the Embarcadero 1 - 4 construction digs? Seems those projects uncovered a large amount of vintage 1850s - 1860s SF bottles and pots/lids. I know my first BB Thayer pot (should they be called "jars"?) came from the Embarcadero. _____________________________ Jason "Give me this here where I live in Glasgow, it's a hard town, I need the Stones." - TumblingDice1972 on youtube (in reply to Gidday) Post #: 18

RE: Great Potlids from a Veteran Digger - 7/10/2010 7:48:29 PM    Gidday Posts: 148 Joined: 7/3/2004 Status: offline The pots are the examples used in Mr Jacksons book. Im not sure where they would have come from. The others took the best part of 10 years to piece together. A very tuff series to find without damage and some of America's best multi coloured.
