Lot of 2 Staffordshire Pottery Books 1966-1970 HC DJ

This exclusive lot features two great books about Staffordshire pottery. The first one, 'Staffordshire Pottery Figures' by John Bedford, was published by Walker & Co in 1966 as a reprinted edition. The second book, 'History of the Staffordshire Potteries' written by Simeon Shaw, was published by Praeger Publishers in 1970 with an unstated edition. The books are in good condition. The covers have minor sunning and foxing, and the dust jackets show some edge wear including small tears. There is shelf and edge wear with rounding and scuffing on edges, corners, and spine ends. The text block and endpapers have some soiling and foxing, but the bindings are tight and the pages are clean with bright illustrations.

These Staffordshire pottery books are great for pottery enthusiasts or collectors. You can use them to learn about the history and figures of Staffordshire pottery. To keep them in good shape, handle them gently when reading. Avoid reading them in places with high humidity or direct sunlight as this can damage the covers and pages. When not in use, store them on a dry and stable bookshelf. If there is some dust on the books, you can use a soft brush to gently clean them.
