WEDGWOOD MUSEUM NEWS AND KEITH MURRAY

I have just learned from my good buddy Adele of the Wedgwood Society of Washington, D.C., that the court date for the Wedgwood Museum Trust pension fiasco is now looking like this coming fall or later. Talk about dragging one's feet! It appears to this observer that if it was important to settle the issue, which MANY of us believe it is, action would be moved along. Apparently someone somewhere does not WANT this problem solved; or perhaps they just have NO clue how to solve it so are ignoring it, hoping it will disappear. Among the world's stupidity, this is at the top of my list, which grows longer with every passing day.

On a brighter note, click the title of this post to view an 'Annular' shape coffee cup by famed Wedgwood designer Keith Murray. I take issue with the writer's calling what Murray designed for Wedgwood "glassware"...a misnomer for sure! The Los Angeles County Museum of Art does hold wonderful treasures, but "glassware" by Keith Murray, NOT!
