Item 9535
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this wonderful 2 gallon Crock made and stamped on the shoulder by the "Beaumont Pottery, York, Maine" and incribed on the bottom with a Crock, the initials "J B", and the date 1981.
 
This is the work of Jerry Beaumont whom I believe has been and continues to be one of the best contemporary potters in America today.  His work from York, Maine in the 1980's was some of his finest.  
 
This beauty features the pottery stamp with cobalt wash, bottom inscribing, and a Folk Art Bearded Man with Lincoln Hat known as "Mr. Perkins" holding a Peacock in his Hand.  Additional ground cover under his feet.  The cobalt is rich and applied with a slip cup.  Measure 10 1/2" tall and 9 1/2" wide across the top.
 
Excellent Condition.  A 1/4" chip on the back at the base.  Otherwise as made.
