Hello.. I am wondering if anyone knows about Newcomb College Pottery? I know
that the original thrower was Joseph Meyers and that it was a New Ortleans
college at the turn of the 1900's. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Wasn't Newcomb the women's school associated with Tulane University? I
think it was still in existence as a separate entity in the late 60s
when I was starting to think about applying to colleges.
