This gunmetal glazed bowl has both foil
limited edition label and incised number. Curiously the
incision is Colo. Springs and the foil label is Denver. |

More commonly we find either the
number or label but not both. These crackle vases are examples. |

We found the numbers were more common on Colo. Springs pottery. Denver items were usually labeled. | ||

So what is the significance of "limited
edition"? All the items are
very nice in some way but not especially unique in form or glaze.
The black and crackle glazes are only
somewhat
hard to find. The ball pitcher is a real beauty but without a
particularly rare glaze. The gunmetal glaze is not rare; the classy
boot on an oval base is hard to find.
P.H. Genter signed all but the black and
matte blue (periwinkle) vases. His signed items are very common. J.B.
Hunt incised the black. No incision at all on the matte blue.
