RE: Reassembled Redware - save your shards! - 3/3/2011 1:50:19 PM    Ratzilla   Posts: 420 Joined: 4/29/2009 From: Mullica Hill NJ Status: offline I have a booth over at the Old Mill where I sell my extra bottles and all the crud I find at yard sales - cheap is good (and occasionally out on the curb - free is better) - won't be seeing these plates over there, though! (although I do sometimes sell some of the more ordinary design reassembly plates at bottle shows, I have plenty of them now, probably will have a couple at Baltimore) _____________________________ Always looking for Camden, NJ bottles!

I always save the decorated redware and yellowware shards. I don't find much decorated redware around here, but I have two decent plates that I got from the very bottom of an 1860s pit.  ~Jim _____________________________ Preserving our buried history, one pit at a time. http://www.freewebs.com/lewistownbottles/index.htm (in reply to Ratzilla) Post #: 42

Thanks for posting. If I ever get my act together, I will post some of my dug redware. Such pretty sights! Terrific. Andy (in reply to Ratzilla) Post #: 45

And the funny thing (to me at least) is that most of those designs wouldn't have looked out of place in a "modern art" collection from the 1970's! Buck (in reply to andy g) Post #: 46
