A study of north Appalachian Indian pottery

Wren, Christopher, 1853-, Wyoming Historical and Geological Society · 1914 · Wilkes-Barre, Pa. : The E.B. Yordy Company · 33 pictures

A 1914 archaeological study of Indian pottery from the north Appalachian region, published in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, by the Wyoming Historical and Geological Society and written by Christopher Wren for specialists and collectors. The plates photograph whole vessels and potsherds on plain grounds, with pots shown in profile and sherds shown in close detail, so a designer can study the rounded shoulders, cord-marked surfaces, and rim forms as clear, simple shapes for pattern or texture.
