I bet you can't find my nice beaver, I mean, squirrel?

It's marked in gold paint over the glaze: 'Niagra Falls'. Clearly a tourist piece...

This is my first post so here goes
Hi Rose, I thought that you might like to know that the signature on your swan label, is that of Jozo Weider. He was the founder of Blue Mountain Pottery.
It's one of the earlier labels and dates your swan from the 50's to early 60's.

Hi Tigerchips, your squirrel is Evangeline ware from the Canuck Pottery

Hi Sue, Rose is spot on your bookends are BMP

If you haven't gathered, my main interest is BMP   ;D
Hope that this is helpful. Cheers.

Hi Mac and welcome to the board. Thank you for such a helpful first post, it's very much appreciated.  :clap: Your knowledge in that area is most welcome as we do struggle a little to figure out some of this stuff (as you can probably tell!)   ;D

Hi Mac, and Welcome to the Forum.  I am sure that your expertise knowledge will help us, since us Canadians (and others) do post BMP here, and others types of Canadian/USA pottery....

Again -- WELCOME.  :cheerleader: :cheerleader:
