Literature
An item attributed to William Morgan (or the partnership of William Morgan and Thomas Amoss) represents a highly collectible era of early Baltimore, Maryland salt-glazed stoneware. A breakdown of the historical context, typical decorative styles, and characteristics associated with these specific makers from circa 1819 to 1827 outlines their distinct features. The Partnership (1819–1822): William H. Morgan (a second-generation Baltimore potter) entered into a brief partnership with Thomas Amoss on Pitt Street in Baltimore. Pieces explicitly incised with their joint signature—such as Morgan & Amoss / makers / Balt—are exceptionally rare and highly coveted by American folk art collectors.
