57 (Early Series) TWO SHAPES
: This is one of those Early Series numbers that was assigned twice, first to a PPP shape, and then some time after PPP was discontinued in 1934, to a Remued shape. The two shapes here are very similar.
Un-numbered, stamped PPP Height 7.5 cm
Shape book 'PPP'
On the sketch the collar appears to have at first been vertical like the PPP examples above, but then to have been been altered to angle outwards like the Remued examples below.
Bases stamped PPP, incised 57.
57 (Early Series) Small pot, collar lip with flare.
Does this shape appear in other series? No - (none recorded). It is, however, almost identical to another Early Series shape,
