• DISCUSSION: "Althougth there is a large number of books on objets d'art available in a higher price range, there is very little to suit the enthusianst of more modest means. this book is intended for the read who has limited knowledge of the subject, perhaps culled from visits to museums, but who may be encouraged to start a collecton of the less expensive pieces." Contents: Introduction, Early days of lustre, The Lustra families, Lustre decorations, Things made in lustre ware, Round the Lustre ware centres (Staffordshire, Sunderland, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Leeds, Swansea), Rhyme, reason and history, and Iridescent lustre.

I was an avid English pottery collector (and seller), having over 1000 pieces of the maritime pink lustre Sunderland pottery in my collection. I have divested myself of the collection, and I am selling all the reference books I had.
