A mug in the British Museum, (1938,0314.26) is decorated in scratch blue with a crowned lion over the date '1759', and 'Good Success to the king/of Prussia' below a crowned lion. If the initials JB stood for a potter, rather than another person who owned the mug, they might stand for John Baddeley (1725/6-1771) who is known to have made salt-glazed stoneware in the 1750s and 1760s. A salt-glazed stoneware tureen, cover and stand incised ' JB' on the underside of the cover, and 'JB 1763' on the base is in the Victoria & Albert Museum (2169-B-1901). It is more usual to find the potter's initials or name on the base of objects. If the initials referred to the potter, there were several others in the area who had the same initials, such as, James Bold, Joseph Bucknall, and John Brindley, who are known to have been working in the 1760s. . reference term-113159 adlib-term-113159 4bdfb4a7-b307-3dfa-a3d6-8ada4683271e 18th Century, third quarter reference term-107736 adlib-term-107736 e93a8dd1-d76d-320b-be9b-afa352e322a1 George II reference term-107658 adlib-term-107658 824d3ecf-92c1-33aa-8d45-2f0239317270 literal England England country Staffordshire white reference term-42825 adlib-term-42825 858e5d17-b554-33d6-936f-25b16f72f39d stoneware Height cm 16.8 Width cm 15.2 reference media-43315 adlib-media-43315 afa7e166-7606-34b0-bcae-5774da8336a4 jpeg aa/aa8/C_37_1934_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583162362 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_37_1934_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742583162362 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_37_1934_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583162362 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_37_1934_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742583162362 1 image 0 media image reference media-43316 adlib-media-43316 7dc1b6b8-c409-3ea3-ab35-c4186f87703f jpeg aa/aa8/C_37_1934_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583200447 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_37_1934_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742583200447 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_37_1934_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583200447 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_37_1934_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742583200447 1 image 1 media image reference media-43317 adlib-media-43317 f74e2885-c472-3a44-9353-a65b14e42d21 jpeg aa/aa8/C_37_1934_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583230094 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/mid_C_37_1934_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742583230094 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/C_37_1934_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742583230094 1 image jpeg aa/aa8/preview_C_37_1934_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742583230094 1 image 2 media image reference term-91188 adlib-term-91188 40f320f4-04b6-3303-8129-f9e81e2b4671 mug tankard history note Cecil Baring, 3rd Lord Revelstoke (1864-1934); sold Puttick & Simpson, London 20-23 November 1934, Catalogue of an Important Collection of Old English Pottery. the Property of the Rt.
