Edited by KEITH POOLE    ISBN 0 9515089 4 6The Art of the Torquay and South Devon Potters

This beautiful book was published by the T.P.C.S. in 1996, to mark the twentieth anniversary of the Society. It is of A4 size and contains 212 pages, packed with information and photographs. There are 216 plates, nearly half of which are in full colour.

Here you will find vast amounts of information about the history of the Torquay potteries, the artists and craftsmen who worked there and the best of the pottery they produced. There are also numerous line drawings, details of the marks found on the pottery and a brief history of the Torquay Pottery Collectors Society, from its founding.

Many Society members contributed their knowledge and photographs of their pots to this publication and the book focuses on superior examples of the Torquay potters' art. New collectors will be amazed by the range of pots which were produced and by their quality.

This publication is available to members at £22.00 by post. Prices apply to the United Kingdom only; additional overseas postage will be charged at cost.
