[QUOTE="msgood2shoe, post: 236842, member: 69"]I have "Collector's Encyclopedia of Pickard China" by Alan B. Reed. He does not list an artist with a first name beginning with an E and a last name of Pickard. IMHO, the first piece isn't Pickard, as colors and overall look of the piece isn't quite "Pickard" like. They are primarily known for completely handpainted pieces, which is why their work is collected. As you and others have noted, the quality of the painting on the 2nd piece isn't up to Pickard's standards. And the blurry versus crisp edges on the handpainting point to hobbyist work versus any professional studio. Since neither are marked Pickard, I would not attribute either of the pieces to Pickard.[/QUOTE]
