Split from the Frank Smith thread because the Marks book doesn't have an FS mark in a round stamp, and it was found in Australia - Admin

It might be Frank Smith. He had a couple of marks. I've got one of his with the other style of mark.

The mark does look like one of Frank Smith's marks. His was the first studio pottery that I bought back in the late 1980s.

I don't recognise the style of this being his but he was potting on his own from around 1970 so he made many things. Although not stylistically like anything I've seen it's not a million miles away so it could well be by him. Can't be 100% certain though.

This mark was attributed to Frank Smith but not 100% sure the attribution was correct. Looks similar, though. Possibly the same as our 'not Frank Smith' mark

Hi, thank you for your help. I haven't had any luck on finding information on Frank Smith as the Potter. would anyone have any bio or history on him and his work?
