Thanks to Forrest & Ginny Poston for their kind permission to use some rescaled versions of their pictures for some of my pages. The pictures have been personally made for use on their own site www.ginforsodditiques.com. All rights reserved by Forrest & Ginny Poston. Their site shows lots of info on various German potteries, so I would advise anybody to get dug into their site.

Thanks to Sharon Dickinson for her kind permission to use some rescaled versions of her pictures for my Schumann (Arzberg, Bavaria) page. The pictures have been personally made by Sharon for use on her own site www.efineantiques.com. All rights reserved by Sharon Dickinson. Her site shows lots of info on Schumann, so I would advise anybody looking for further info to simply skip over to her site.

Also thanks to Günther Schleu for his kind permission to use some pictures for my Porzellanfabrik Kalk (Eisenberg, Thuringia) page. The pictures have been personally made by Günther for use on his own site www.schleu.de (look for 'Porzellan-Sucheseite'). All rights reserved by Günther Schleu. His site shows tons of info especially on the Kalk facility including lots of marks also used by other companies easily confused with Kalk. Danke, Günther!

Thanks also go out to Wolfgang Pfaller, who has a great German page on patent history under www.wolfgang-pfaller.de and has helped me find out a few things that had me stumped. Danke, Wolfgang!

And lots of thanks to Ginni D. Snodgrass for her kind permission to use some marks for my pages. Visit www.collectorscircle.com for tons of info on Bohemian and Czechoslovakian porcelain. One of these days Ginni and I will have to team up:-)

Thanks also to Herald Gessinger, who has a great German page on ... soap. In case you are wondering: during the war periods, soap was made out of all kinds of things and some porcelain and earthenware manufacturers tried it, too. So if you are interested in soap history or need a receipe to make your own, just visit www.seifen.at.Danke, Herald!
