| Abstract |
|
This is a unique resource that contains a wealth of original catalog, text and photographic information on Sowerby that covers the period from the early 1920s through to the late 1950s. This second volume has almost 120 original catalog pages spanning these years - the introduction of Carnival Glass, the Art Deco years, Tynesyde Glass and much more are shown here. Furthermore, there is a full, illustrated section on Sowerby's Carnival covering all their known patterns - plus a special feature on the fabulous Diving Dolphins. More amazing new information is contained in the fascinating and compelling contemporary accounts of Adam Dodds (glass technologist at Sowerby's) including his memories of the 1950s re-issue of Sowerby's Carnival. A comprehensive series of actual reports from the Pottery Gazette, between 1928 and 1948 is also included, accompanied by illustrations that will both amaze and delight.
