I don't collect for rarity, I collect for collecting. I'd just like to assemble what I can at this moment with a low budget. I'll get into the rarer stuff later, I can't drop several grand for a piece at this time. With all the different variants of the A.P.Donaghho stoneware pieces, I thought I'd start with this and a piece I got earlier last month. Thought $40 wasn't too bad a price. No damage, just some wear on the stenciling.
