Topic: Optic cut glass custard cup with ground pontil - could it be Whitefriars?

I have just purchased the above book, paperback and secondhand, on Amazon for 95p plus P&P!

I wanted to put that under the quote, but couldn't do it....sorry.

Peejy — you cost me 3p!   Mine was 98p plus p&p!   That's the end of the cheap ones, folks.

Sorry Bernard

Nic & Peejy — What a fantastic little book!   How that escaped me so long I don't know.   It was published shortly after Lattimore — we have members who were potty training then!

I wish I'd had it when I started topic Tall elegant early? tazza / comport.

We had the tazza with us on Sunday at the Dulwich fair, and used it initially to display eleven stems in Stuart's lovely Emmerdale pattern, which sold quite quickly, then switched it back to a more traditional role of displaying a set of jelly glasses.  I will be sad to sell it as it is so useful as a display stand (much like my mahogany/glass witches' stool).

Grateful thanks, Nic.

...and that looks like your tazza on page 64 - how wonderful. It is a great little book and has been neatly tucked into my handbag ever since I received it.  :hiclp:

Gosh, yes, there it is. Seems I should have cracked the spine on this book a little more often.
