Collectors, and beginners especially, should make a point of studying the wares exhibited at museums or galleries. It is an excellent training for the eye, particularly in judging blue and colours generally. The bibliography will, I trust, be of service to those who desire to investigate more thoroughly the History of English Porce lain. My thanks are due to Mr. W. Tyrrell, not only for drawing the marks on specimens at the British Museum, but also for his permission to reproduce examples from the collection belonging to Messrs. Sampson, Low, Marston Co., Ltd., to Mr. Albert Amor, for permission to reproduce the marks in his catalogue of the Trapnell Collection of Bristol and Plymouth China; and to Major Garrett, of the Coalport Factory, for the interesting series of reprints from the actual plates of the Coalport Factory marks, which he has permitted 'me to reproduce.
