Rare Finds |The Latta Collection Mark and Marie Latta started collecting American Art Pottery over three decades ago. Today, these Iowa natives have created a sizeable and distinguished collection that demonstrates the incredible range of ceramics manufactured in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries at regional and national potteries in the United States, including Ohio companies like Weller, Roseville, and Rookwood potteries. Rare Finds |The Latta Collection is an intimate exhibition featuring forty unique pieces from their extensive ten-thousand-piece pottery collection. Discerning collectors, the Lattas’ sought out extraordinary pieces featuring unusual glaze variations or colors that deviate from others in their line, works with virtuoso surface decoration, or those that have unusual subject matter. Examples that may surprise the most seasoned art pottery collector include: a vase manufactured by Weller Pottery Company from the Louwelsa line that features a red glaze rather than the typical brown glaze; the largest example of a Rozane Woodland vase designed by Gazo Foudji for Roseville Pottery Company; and a standard glaze tray decorated with a cat and mouse by Harriet Wilcox, a Rookwood Pottery Company artist and one of Mark and Marie Latta’s favorite decorators. Passionate collectors, the Lattas’ are also deeply committed to art pottery education. They are long-time members of pottery organizations like Pottery Lovers, the American Art Pottery Association (AAPA), and the Iowa Art Pottery Association. Mark and Marie Latta have also held leadership positions in these organizations; Mark Latta as a past president of the AAPA and Marie Latta as the organization’s long- standing membership coordinator. The Iowa Art Pottery Association, which was formed in August 1999 by seventeen pottery collectors in Mark and Marie Latta’s home, funded and installed the Ohio State Historical Marker on Linden Avenue in Zanesville, Ohio commemorating the site of the former Roseville Pottery Company plant. Founded in 1890 in Roseville, Ohio, Roseville Pottery Company…The company moved to this Linden Avenue location in 1898, and Began creating art pottery. By 1917, all production of pottery was moved to the Linden Avenue Plant. The Roseville Pottery Company was among the most commercially successful producers of art pottery in America until closing in 1954. During its span of sixty-four years, Roseville opened four plants and produced an enormous quantity and variety of pottery made primarily from native Ohio clay. The hallmark of Roseville Pottery is its unmistakaBle dynamic and artistic quality, designed for the average consumer in a modern age. Roseville's great success can Be attriButed to its aBility to Blend commercial enterprise with the highest standards of ceramic artware production Advocates of not only American Art Pottery but also the arts in general, Mark Latta holds a position on the Board of the Muscatine Art Center, Muscatine, Iowa and both are deeply committed to the Brunnier Museum, Ames, Iowa. Rare Finds |The Latta Collection will be on view through July 2021. .

THE VARIETY of Vance and Avon Faience: PART I, the VANCE FAIENCE COMPANY
Journal of the American Art Pottery Association, v.21 n.2 p.22-26, 2005. © American Art Pottery Association. http://www.aapa.info/Home/tabid/120/Default.aspx http://www.aapa.info/Journal/tabid/56/Default.aspx ISSN: 1098-8920 THE VARIETY OF Vance and Avon Faience: PART I, THE VANCE FAIENCE COMPANY BY JAMES L. MURPHY Seldom has there been a more disparate pair of ceramic Siamese twins than the Vance and Avon Faience companies of tiny Tiltonsville, Ohio, an Ohio River town about eight miles north of Wheeling, West Virginia. Sigafoose puts it more bluntly, if perhaps a little too bluntly: “Most authors of the last 30 years continue to mistakenly refer to the Avon Faience Company as Vance/Avon Faience [although these] were two completely different organizations with different management, different designers and artists, and very different products that are signed with different marks.”1 Owl candlestick, “Good Evening Old Friend, “with embossed bat, man-in-the moon, and stars. 5 ¼ inches high, base impressed with block letter “F”. In terms of product, the work produced by the Vance pottery appears largely to have been the work of a single designer and modeler, Rudolph Lorber (1872-1952), better known for his later work at Zanesville's Weller Pottery, while the product of the Avon company was the result of diverse designers and decorators such as William P. Jervis (1851-1925), Frederick H. Rhead (1880-1942), and Albert L. Cusick (1881-1946). Both endeavors were short-lived, production by the Vance Faience Co. much the shorter, and Vance Faience pottery has been largely dismissed by collectors and historians alike, some pieces even described a bit harshly as being “bloated, molded wares.”2 Two examples of Vance Faience's hound-handled pitcher, made from old Daniel Greatbach molds.

The Flowering of American Art Pottery
Earth into Art The FLowering of American Art Pottery OBJECT GUIDE I. 1876 CENTENNIAL InTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION In the late nineteenth century, American-made art pottery was internationally recognized for its innovation, quality, and beauty. The story of this distinctly American artistic achievement began with the 1876 Centennial International Exhibition in Philadelphia, which celebrated the one hundredth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Mary Louise McLaughlin (1847–1939) and Maria Longworth Nichols (1849–1932)—accomplished china painters in Cincinnati who would become central figures in establishing the American Art Pottery industry—exhibited in the Women’s Pavilion, but it was what they saw in other buildings that would propel their careers forward in unimagined ways. European and Asian firms exhibited superior examples of porcelain and earthenware that captivated fairgoers. Meanwhile, Horticulture Hall, with its displays of exotic and native plants, riveted attention on gardening. Skillfully rendered botanicals would be important subjects in decorating American Art Pottery. 1) Top to bottom: In case: “Japanese Pottery” and Visitors Guide to the “Haviland Faience,” 1876 Centennial Exhibition Published Harper’s Weekly, Philadelphia, 1876 November 25, 1876 Publisher: J.B.
