Marks

 This exhibit employs Robert Copeland's categorization of marks to include:  Impressed, painted and printed company marks as well as workman's painted and printed marks.  With few exceptions, the marks included in the exhibit are assigned the number designated by Mr. Copeland.   While these marks represent the types of marks found on the items included in the exhibition, they do not constitute a complete list of all marks employed by the Spode factory from 1780 to 1833.  Robert Copeland's book,  Spode & Copeland Marks, is recommended for visitors interested in a comprehensive study of the pottery's marks.
