Abingdon Pottery in Illinois made many different vases and decorative housewares 1934-1950.  In 1940 and 1941, they produced a pitcher shape in 3 sizes.  This pitcher - shape #200 - is the largest, a 2-quart pitcher.  Examples of the 3 pitchers photographed from my collection can be seen on page 58 of the 1997 book "Abingdon Pottery Artware" by Joe Paradis.

This pitcher is about 8-1/4 inches tall with the round bottom portion about 6-1/4 inches in diameter at its widest.  It is about 7-1/4 inches spout-to-handle and the bottom rim is about 4 inches in diameter.  It is a heavy sturdy piece weighing almost 3 pounds. 

It has the rectangular stamped Abingdon U.S.A. mark on the bottom and the in-mold impressed shape number 200.     

Made just before World War II and over 80 years old, it has no chips or hairlines.  Unusual for Abingdon pieces, it does have some factory flaws as shown in the photos - a 1-1/2-inch vertical glaze skip that may have occurred from rubbing against another piece while the glaze was wet, a small black dot under the glaze that may have occurred during firing when a piece of dust stuck on the glaze, and 5 pinhole glaze pops.  

It is not an easily-found piece and is a duplicate from my own collection that looked just fine for years on a shelf in the kitchen even with the factory flaws.
