<p>[QUOTE="msgood2shoe, post: 418447, member: 69"]I would call it hobbyist work, though you could call it student as well. I took ceramic "classes" during that time frame. It was a popular hobby/social thing to do. You'd go to a shop that sold "greenware" and finish it with the help of the shop owner who would guide you through the steps in a group setting. Because there were a number of people taking classes, you carved your initials in the bottoms so you could tell yours from other students. Most people also put the date/year on the bottom.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
