When this book was first published in 1970 it provided precisely what the collector of Staffordshire portrait figures had long required: an extensive photographic record of the 1,500 or so portrait figures which were produced in the nineteenth century and which encapsulate so much of the history of Victorian England. The book is affectionately known as ‘Pugh’ and is considered a bible for Staffordshire figure collectors.

This is the second revised edition 1981 with updated information, new photography and redesigns to make the catalogue as easy to use as possible. The book is also invaluable because of the wide range of practical information it contains on such collecting pitfalls as forgeries, fakes, reproductions and repairs.
