<p>[QUOTE="Rastella, post: 335739, member: 6722"]That is very interesting! I wish you'd kept it. I would have loved to compared them. When I am ready, I'm going to broach this subject again soon. Interestingly, while looking at the photos of the older tulip ware (I mean, the really old ones) plus reading about the history and the cultural of the first German settlers in Pennsylvania from completely different sources (some information not readily online) something very peculiar and surprising about the first American tulip wares leapt out and I CAN NOT unsee it. It's now no longer about just my jar. I've got a drive to discover more. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> Keep in mind that the first "serious" writers of tulip ware had to rely on the memories of grown up grandchildren and they did not have the benefit of putting two and two together as we do with the internet. P.S. - Connecting some of the dots came from a small blurb in an old 1962 Majolica paper booklet that I just HAPPENED to have.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
