Hi everybody..new member here..I have been collecting Bauer ringware pottery since the early seventies..I started with a girlfriends yard sale..two green bowls for 50 cents each..my mom took once look and proclaimed them Bauers and special and I was hooked..the local little swap meet became a treasure trove of finds that I vowed to only collect my favorite color of green as their seemed to be "so much of it"..after a couple of years I realized my folly and started adding all the other colors..the mixing bowls have always been my favorite..yard sales give me the most pleasure of a find..last year on a late end of weekend I drove by a yard sale to catch a flash of color and the familiar rings on a bowl and found two ringware bowls overlooked by all all weekend..terrie
