Wow. That's one of the more unique A' items I've seen. Any idea if it was made in 1911/12?.....not sure if they had those printing capabilities back then.

Found this on another site:
"Cook Pottery Company – Charles H. Cook purchased the Ott & Brewer Pottery in 1894. It also conducted pottery operations at the site of the Dale & Davis plant on Prospect Street. For a time, it produced Belleek products using Ott & Brewer molds. One of its best known pieces was a Spanish American pitcher honoring Admiral Dewey. The Cook company closed during the Great Depression."

Appears to have closed circa 1930.
