blue calico pitcher


Back in the 70's I supplied a gift shop in Overland Park, Kansas with hand painted furniture pieces. I delivered an order but when I arrived the shop was closing for good. I took a set of blue calico china in lieu of the $3oo they owed me. I wanted the $300, I got the china. I still had it in its crate and got it out for a daily painting. If I had gotten the money it would have been gone in a week. As it is I can paint it and maybe I will eat off of it, after 30 years.
