Shawnee Pottery
Country Boy at High Stump
Planter # 532
Offered for auction: A very cute Shawnee planter called the "Country
Boy at High Stump" (there is another version with a short stump).
The boy looks like Huck Finn or Tom Sawyer, with fishing pole in hand,
bright blue eyes and yellow hair and straw hat, with airbrushed red glaze
highlighting the stump.
This terrific vintage 1950s planter measures about 6.25 inches high at
the top of the hat, and about 5 inches wide. It is in very good to excellent
condition, with no chips, cracks, flakes, or crazing. It's a very charming
little piece of Shawnee Pottery.
This piece is shown on page 29 of the Mangus publication, "Shawnee
Pottery: An Identification and Value Guide." It has an incised mark
on the underside for "U.S.A. 532". Price: $10.00. |
