I recently bought a set of brown spongeware dishes. The mark on the bottom of one of the dishes says Los Angeles Potteries 1971 ovenware. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find some information/history on the company or the dishes. Thanks guys.

I copied this quote from the link below.
The second link is an Amazon.com link to books with references to Los Angeles Potteries. If you have the right browser and add-ons, you can look at excerpts of the books - or you can think about buying one of the books if it looks of interest to you.
