Mary & Russel Wright by Sovereign Potters

Production dates:

Mid 1950's

Comments:

Not much is known about this line.  Kerr 2nd Edition mentions this line in the Knowles chapter, and she calls it the "Wright Shape."  Kerr mentions that Russel's sister and her husband had a connection with Sovereign Potters.  Keller & Ross mention that the Syracuse archives have "virtually no information on this line."
