Reviews
Through her letters, [Emily Sinkler] presents a vibrant and affluent plantation society but also voices her concerns about religion, politics, and slavery. In reconstructing the narrative of these letters, LeClercq offers us remarkable insight into the roles and responsibilities of women in antebellum society.

    Catalogue was as described and in very good shape for its age. Mold content is minimal and does not adversely affect my allergy. Packaging was excellent and the shipping cost was as expected. The eBay International shipping is humourously slow, but that's not the seller's fault. These are nice people to buy from and answered my product inquiries swiftly, professionally and with good humour. Five stars.

    Fast shipping, AMAZING packing. Seriously probably the best packed piece I’ve ever ordered. You could have dropped this box off a roof and the vase would have survived. Item just as described and in excellent shape. Great price on a wonderful piece of Hull Art Pottery. A wonderful addition to my slowly growing collection. Highly recommend seller and would buy from again in a heartbeat! Thank you for a flawless transaction!

    Excellent seller! Very communicative and promptly too. They were very kind and helpful as well before placing my order. They made sure to work with me and did everything they could to make our transaction successful. My order contained glass and they shipped it in a very protected excellent manner. I could not be happier with my purchase and I HIGHLY recommend this seller! Cheers!
