Hi Guys

Paul has been working his little socks off down at the factory in Devon and the fruits of his labour are due to be coming through the factory over the next week or so.  Paul, after much demand, has decided to re-launch his famous “Page 3 and Fries” teapot.

I will have about 10 available for those collectors who would love to add one of these great teapots to their ever growing collection.  The teapot will vary slightly from the design on the “sauce packet” but it will still be a great pot.

Hi Guys

Just a quick update on what has been happening down in sunny Devon.

The warm weather has made us extremely busy but Paul has got plans to put the first run of the “Page 3 and Fries” and “Hot Dog” into production over the next week.  So for all of those people who have expressed an interest, I have not forgotten you.  I will be in touch with each of you as soon as the teapots are ready.

Hope you are all making the most of the lovely sunny weather.

Hi everyone

I have found another teapot which has always been a great favourite of our Disney teapot lovers.

This “Rhapsody in Pooh” teapot was produced in March 2002 and features Pooh and his band of friends having a great time playing the blues.

This teapot took an amazing 6 months to produce, from the initial model, going through all the design approvals with Disney and then finally into production.

If anybody is interested in this teapot, do please let me know.

Speak to you all soon.

Many congratulations to Terry Stevens and Gill Martin who are the two winners of our “Teapot Quiz”.  Your teapot will be sent to you soon.

Many thanks to all of the collectors who took the time to hunt down the answers to the Quiz.

I will try and devise another quiz in due course!

Hi there

After a hectic Easter, we are having a clear out ready for the onslaught of the summer season.  During his clean up, Paul has come across a couple of his old moulds and he has plans to re-launch these teapots again for all of you new collectors who would not have had the chance to snap one of these great teapots up the first time round.

Paul is planning to re-launch the “Page 3 and Fries”, “Ketchup Bottle” and “Hot Dog” teapots over the next month.  If you are interested in any of these teapots, do please let me know and I will be in touch as soon as these are ready to be despatched.

Following on from previous newsletters, I am writing again to feature another one of the teapots that we have stashed away in the Vault.

This teapot is a great favourite of mine.  After many years of Paul Cardew working alongside Disney with regard to their amazing teapots, Paul wanted to commemorate the re-release of “Dumbo” the film.  This teapot was therefore born and it is wonderful.  The teapot shows “Dumbo” getting ready for his big entrance in the Big Tent with “Timothy Mouse” being his eyes (and big ears!)  This teapot is part of a limited edition.

Hi Guys

Me - yet again!

I am letting you know about another teapot that I have found stashed away in the vault.  This is a large “China Market Stall”!

This teapot was produced in 1993 with a limited editon size of 1000 pieces and was retired in 1997.  In fact, only 866 pieces were ever made so this is one of Paul’s rarer teapots.
