I retired from potting in the mid 1980s, and now realize that the library
that I acquired on glazes, pottery making, and ceramics would be better
utilized by someone active in the craft. I offer the following group of
books for sale at the prices indicated. Shipping would be extra - and
tailored to your situation - UPS, FedEx, US Mail.
