Geoff Ford’s Encyclopedia of Australian Potter’s Marks documents potters and potteries active before 1975 but includes marks used after this period. I thought it might be useful to provide an index of entries in the encyclopedia for potters active in the 1960s-1970s and beyond. Having marks recorded for these potters provides a good start but collectors will need to go to a wide range of other directories to cover the field.

Hi Heather, Apart from the entry in Ford’s Encyclopedia, very little information is available on Eric Juckert.
Ford tells us that he was born in 1918 and started potting in 1936, working with Una Deerbon at her studio in Melbourne. In 1937 he made a range of wares sold by Myers and David Jones under the name Jacqueline. From 1938-1950 he worked in a studio at Caulfield. He went to England for a time (and Mexico too, according to an eBay seller), then in 1967 he set up a studio on Phillip Island south of Melbourne.
His work turns up a lot on eBay and there are examples for sale there this week.
