T A. & P S. No potters mark (attributed to John Campbell). (Tasmanian Agricultural & Pastoral Society Mug).. Pottery. John Campbell. Early and crude pottery mug with black print. 64 mm. 1900s
Good. (6.5). 6 x 3 mm flake to inner rim. 3 x 2 mm flake to upper rim. 3 x 2 mm flake to outer rim. 5 mm split to rim above and right of the S, this is a making mark. 45 mm crack to left of badge, lower part of this is a finer hairline, upper part has a little nibbling to the edges. Fabulous piece of Tasmanian pottery which has all the hallmarks of an early John Campbell made piece, though I might add that I have seen a picture of a similar style mug made at the early Port Arthur pottery. Great item, can't say I have seen another one! Estimate: $100-150
