HISTORY
In 1878, J.A. Bauer, started his life in the pottery business in Louisville, Kentucky producing a variety of utilitarian pieces for direct sale and to other manufacturers and distillers, such as crocks, whiskey jugs, and oil jars. In 1910, he moved the J.A. Bauer Pottery Company to Los Angeles, Lincoln Heights where potters Louis Ipsen and Matt Carlton joined him.
The company introduced a line of dinnerware and the decision was made to add more color and a signature ring pattern was applied to everything. By the early 40s, war loomed and access to crucial materials vital to producing Bauer’s brightly colored pottery line were limited. Failure to modernize their production processes, as well as battles with the pottery worker’s union, led to the demise of the company. A strike vote was approved in 1961 and little new work was done after that. In March of 1962, the plant was closed.
