This is an 1917 auction sale catalogue issued in New York by the American Art Association, listing the pottery vases of collector Thomas B. Clarke, covering Eastern wares from the sixth century B.C. to the eighteenth century A.D. The plates show vases photographed singly and in groups against plain backgrounds, with glazed ceramic forms including a squat jar with a stylised bird and a green-and-white glazed bottle with floral painting, useful for designers studying historical ceramic silhouettes and surface decoration.
