THE MADHATTER
A Wonderful Gort Figurine
THE MADHATTER
is
based on "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
by the
British mathematician
and author, Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, written under the pseudonym
Lewis Carroll."
That mouse-like face is wonderful. His
costume is exquisite and the detail is
outstanding. He's 7½" tall. The base
reveals the Gort logo
and the date CL47.
"The Madhatter" by Priolo completes the
signature. Exquisite condition. No chips,
cracks or repairs. (item

Gort Pottery, famous for its "Bone China,"
was founded by two brothers, Eric and Walter Gort. Having been born in
Russia, they set up shop in Metuchen, NJ in 1944. Unfortunately, their
endeavor was short lived. They closed the company in1954. However, the
quality of their offerings is unsurpassed. Eric Gort was the artist with a
background in the Theater. His attention to detail is exemplary. A large
number of birds and animals were created and all are first rate. Most
figurines are marked.
