We are proud new grandparents! Baby Corissa came to us on December 12, 2006. We love her to pieces!
Things I sell
If I choose to cull my collection, it'll be something that I have two of . . . I'm such an eclectic collector. . .
Things I buy
Pottery--specifically McCoy, Weller, and Watt. Hubby loves McCoy cookie jars (hubby has a bedroom and a guestroom full!). Me? I love ball pitchers (from any maker), and we also collect restaurant-ware (my love is the little creamers). I love cobalt blue, and am always looking for the unusual in that color.

McCoy did use the "USA" mark on some pieces, but just as many more were clearly marked or not marked at all.During war and post-war times, many in America, feeling that their jobs were threatened by imports (pottery and other goods, too), insisted on buying goods...Jun-29-06 16:52:17 PDTComments 2

His favorite type of McCoy? Cookie jars! (Yo...Jun-23-06 20:53:58 PDTComments 22
