Item description from seller

Blue cloth with gilt letters on spine & front cover; white & olive & color illustrated dust jacket. 282 pp., 35 color and 163 bw plates. "Amongst the most popular items of 19th century English porcelain are the small animals that find a ready home with most collectors. These charming animal figures have largely been neglected in existing literature, and this pioneering book is the first comprehensive work on the subject. A wide range of animals is illustrated and described in detail. . Fifteen factories that produced them are identified, including major names such as Rockingham, Derby, Minton, Swansea, Copeland, Davenport and Alcock, and also several of the lesser known potteries such as Charles Bourne, Hilditch & Hopwood, Daniel Edge, and James Dudson. Even unidentified manufacturers operating at the time in Staffordshire are categorised." (dj) Well illustrated. VG- (DJ is slightly aged inside; otherwise clean.).

Current stock occupies over 2.3 miles of shelving. We are active buyers as well as very active sellers, and supply entire reference libraries as well as individual titles. We ship books almost everywhere, with the exception of China due to restrictions. Our website mullenbooks.com maintains our entire database of over 150,000 titles dynamically, so you can submit "wants" for books which are listed, but not currently in-stock. It is a major research tool. Despite what Google may indicate, we are only open to visitors by appointment, as our schedules are dynamic depending upon the needs of our valued employees.…
