Is that the same as dumber than a box of rocks?  Either way, I think you are pretty intelligent Mart!  I'm not sure if you saw it or not, but a Black Americana price guide was put on Kovels by the person who posted the "Googly Eyed teapot with basket weave handle.  Prices were from 2005, so a bit extravagant.  After clicking the provided link, you have to scroll down a bit before the photos appear - thought you might like to take a look.

Sure  will !!   Haven`t had time to look at Kovels much lately !!   By the time I get to sit down and look,, its bedtime !!   Yes the Box of Rocks also fits my knowledge of Chinese marks !!  Are you sure you aren`t a transplanted Texan ?? ;D

No, Mart....not a transplant but have ventured to Texas many times for business in my chemical engineering years!  We have snow today so I'm wishing I was in Texas ha!!!

It's been a while since I've been on Kovels as well...so many things to do.  But, come on...stay up a bit longer.  Oh, and have a wonderful New Year :)
