    I had been really into art pottery for a while. Now it's just kind of an after thought. Every once and a while I'll pick something up as pieces seem to be getting scarcer. I discovered another item for my McCoy collection. This little pitcher screams "I'm from the 70's !!" with it's avocado green finish and daisy design. There are a few scratches on the handle because the finish is so soft. The outside is more like a thick matte paint than a glaze, but the interior has a shiny glaze so it was made to be used. I'd say this is the same vintage as my yellow "Smiley Face" cookie jar. Groovy ! -Mike-

      Thanks DrFluffy :) .... well, if the right piece were there I'd be on it. Just seems to have disappeared in our area. There's not much to get excited about anymore, but it's still on my radar.

      Hi
      Mike.
      Nice one, I never see it before, even the maker mark.
      Great find.

      Thanks Alan :) It's a different version of their mark that's new to me as well. Nothing like the older pieces.
