Why do I find different patterns of dinnerware in the tan-fleck glaze? |
This is called 'After the Strike' dinnerware/art ware. They
are the tan-fleck or solid-orange items, regardless of pattern or shape
that were 'sprayed' as a result of the provisions of the liquidation
court order. The court allowed completion of 'in-process wares'
as a stipulation of the liquidation of the potteries, and became part
of the property of Gilmer's post-Potteries corporation. This was
done by 'a few' of the Union employees for a few weeks in the
Fall/Winter of 1967 as they could not support bringing back enough
employees to hand-paint the remaining bisque-ware of each pattern.
