Stangl Pottery produced a great assortment of earthenware lamps and artware, but the company was renowned for its hand-carved, hand-painted fruit and floral decorated dinnerware patterns. The Stangl Company was the first American pottery to introduce solid-color glazed dinnerware in 1924 and was a major American ceramics and dinnerware supplier when European imports were not available during World War II. This book lists nearly all of Stangl's dinnerware patterns and dinnerware-related items in the order in which they were introduced. Listed with each pattern are all known pieces with a price range and brief description of the pattern. All available production details and history are also included. Over 500 full-color photographs of dinnerware patterns from the 1920s through the 1970s add to the thoroughness of this colorful book. Samples and test pieces, novelty salt and pepper shakers, dealer signs, paper products, advertising, and premiums are included. Collectors will appreciate this extensive volume showcasing Stangl's decorative dinnerware.
