Re: Blue & White pottery item
<h2>George Washington was dead before this was made, sorry. This is quite old and appears to be in good shape. No idea of a value but with this information maybe someone else can give you an idea. <br /></h2><p> </p><p>I.

As early as 1814 it is suggested that they were more or less working independently but the partnership was not dissolved until 1822 after which he took his sons into partnership trading latterly as J.Hall & Sons. Three Marks are attributed to him and are found both printed and impressed </p><ul><li><strong>I. HALL</strong> </li><li><strong> I.

Two major series of patterns were developed by him, the Quadruped Series and the Oriental Scenery Series. The Quadruped Series with several American subjects particularly sold to the North American market.
