<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 384559, member: 308&quot;]I just returned from a big McCoy auction outside Zanesville.&nbsp; If it is a McCoy pot it is undocumented and would be worth several hundred at least.&nbsp; Similar pots, though, were made by Shawnee, Morton, and others.&nbsp; I checked my Shawnee book and didn&#039;t see it there.&nbsp; I&#039;ll check my Morton book later tonight and scan my library to see if I can find any other likely suspects. Red clay would rule out McCoy but the water in areas of the Midwest is heavy in iron and I think that is what is causing the red we&#039;re seeing.&nbsp; A good toilet bowl cleaner that works on hard water stains should help clear it up.&nbsp; The bottom ring will probably never come back to buff color.&nbsp; I&#039;d guess 1930&#039;s or 1940&#039;s.&nbsp; It&#039;s a lovely pot.&nbsp; If all else fails I would run it by the Facebook McCoy Pottery group or the American Pottery Identification page.&nbsp; If you&#039;re not on Facebook let me know and if it&#039;s okay I can post it for you.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
