<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Taupou, post: 3288454, member: 45&quot;]Sorry, but I don&#039;t recognize any of these.&nbsp; The first one, however, is contemporary, and the potter has an unusual style, so anyone familiar with him/her should be able to recognize it.&nbsp; The &quot;S.D.P.&quot; is likely the tribal affiliation (Santa Clara Pueblo) rather than the potter&#039;s initials.&nbsp; It may be that the symbol above is the potter&#039;s initials, rather than a mountain.&nbsp; That does look like a &quot;W,&quot; if that&#039;s any help.</p><p><br /></p><p>The second one I have no idea. Could be Santa Clara, San Ildefonso, Jemez, maybe none of those.&nbsp; Potters who sign only with initials may not have tribal membership.&nbsp; Those who do usually include it, since they realize the increased value tribal affiliation can add.</p><p><br /></p><p>The third, from Jemez Pueblo, is ca. 1970s, painted with acrylics, and marks a low point in Jemez pottery.&nbsp; It&#039;s inexpensive souvenir ware, so it probably doesn&#039;t matter who the &quot;A.L.&quot; actually is.&nbsp; Gregory Schaaf&#039;s Southern Pueblo Pottery, 2000 Artist Biographies&quot; lists 9 or 10 potters from Jemez with those initials.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
