About This Web Site

After you have looked around a bit, you will probably notice a couple things.

  1. Some photos are missing. (Especially in the "animals", "kiddieware", and "dinnerware" sections.) I have tried to list all the known pieces in these sections even if I didn't have a photo. (Note: I'm always looking for photos. Just e-mail them to me. (See below for details). I like large photos. I can always reduce them but enlarging them doesn't work worth a hoot.)
  2. The photos are either too small (to read well) or too big (to download in a reasonable time). Sorry, but I have tried to make a good compromise. Virtually all of the sections were designed by me to be printed out and used as a reference. I therefore wanted to show all the items in a small printable form. I thought about adding links to larger versions of the photos but the space requirements for storing the page would be outrageous. I have a limited amount of room for storing this web page and I would rather save the remaining room for new material. I hope you will understand.

A few requests from me to you.

  1. Photos or images of missing items, brochures, price lists, magazine ads, etc.. are always welcome and are really appreciated. Please send them to me by e-mail in any format except zip or exe. (JPEG is the best but TIFF,BMP,GIF, etc.. will all do fine.) Please do not send me scanned photos from any of the reference books by Duke, Schneider, Runge, Rehl etc... These are all copyrighted works and the authors have put a lot of time and effort into them. Let's respect that. As far as personal photos, old company materials, brochures, magazine ads, etc.. are concerned, I would appreciate whatever you can scan and e mail to me. Thanks.
  2. Please don't ask me if the items are for sale. They are not. In fact I don't even know who owns most of the items. Sorry.
  3. Please don't ask me to price any items. I don't keep up to date with current values. Sorry.
  4. Comments and questions are welcome, however please understand that I have a real job and this is just a part time hobby.

Enjoy yourself.
