<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gg11311, post: 58210, member: 604&quot;]Ok so this is totally bizarre but I actually found these two pieces at separate estate sales here in Northern VA.&nbsp; I can find some info on the HC Smith pottery which operated in the early to mid half of the 19th century in Alexandria VA and Washington DC.&nbsp; I was hoping someone in the community could help me deterimine if they are in fact authentic.&nbsp; Both have what a appears to be a signiture and the number 91 etched into the bottom and each has an almost identitcal floral pattern.&nbsp; There is also what appears to be the number &quot;8&quot; impressed on the rear of each crock down by the bottom.&nbsp; The mark on the front was apparently in use from 1931-1957.&nbsp; There are very slight variations in size and shape but these two are almost exactly the same and stand about 6 1/2&quot; tall and 5 1/2&quot; in diameter at the shoulder... what are the odds?&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]14954[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]14955[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]14956[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]14957[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]14958[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
