Gibbs Conner Pieces
Posted By: Mark
I am intrigued by the Gibbs Conner prototypes that were uncovered about 4 years ago. For 50 years (1954 - 2004), the only known piece was the Chief Wahoo Bank. I always wondered why Gibbs Conner didn't produce others (similar to Stanford Pottery). |

Awesome Mark. I know you had mentioned to me before you had many of the Gibbs Conner pieces. These really dont get the attention they deserve. Too bad these never made it into production but thankfully some have survived the years and can still be enjoyed. The Brooklyn cookie jar is a gem. Thanks for posting the pics. |

You're right Jodi... a striking and scary resemblance. No wonder these were never picked up by retailers of the era. Thanks (in advance) for the nightmare I'll be having tonight. |

That is very cool, Brock. I missed seeing that one on ebay, but there is one somewhat similar in the current Lelands Auction (Lot 212). They are saying it is circa 1900, and it's 12" tall. Looks like yours is in comparable condition, or even better. Thanks for posting! |
