J....history of Burgess & Campbell The Mercer Pottery Co. was organized in 1868. James Moses, the head of the company, claims to have been the first to make semi‑porcelain ware in this country. The double shield trademark, formerly used by this company, was the same as that employed by the firms of Carr & Clark and BURGESS & CAMPBELL . It was also used at the New York City Pottery by Mr. Carr, as will be seen. When the International Pottery Co. was organized in 1879 by Messrs. Carr and Clark, assisted by John and James Moses, the double shield was adopted as being an appropriate design for the name of the company, Mr. Clark being an English potter and James Moses an American. The same shapes were being made at the Mercer and International Potteries and the goods were interchangeable. Hence the same mark was used by each, the only difference being in the name printed beneath. **In September of the same year Messrs. Burgess & Campbell bought the interest of Carr & Clark and substituted their names beneath the trade‑mark.( see trademark photo)
