Ted C. Guyger Pot Collection - Mame - Calling Texans!

[ben_sai_ATL]

Howdy Howdy,


I have recently (~3 years) taken over as steward of my aging father in law's bonsai collection, and MAN did the guy collect some pots. I have a large collection of Ted Guyger mame pots that may be of certain interest to growers and enthusiasts of the southeast and Texas. I have very little back ground on how he came upon so many of his pots, but I am considering reducing the size of the collection (I have too many collections of other things, a common problem here I'm sure). There are about 40 in total. I have posted some of the more attractive pots for interest. Feel free to message me with any questions!

From ATL with Love,

-Ben

For those who are not familiar with Ted Guyger, he was a bonsai pioneer in Texas. He helped establish some of the first bonsai clubs in the state, now in an umbrella organization, the Lone Star Bonsai Federation. There are probably other members of Bonsai Nut that know much more about Ted than I do--please add to the thread.

How large is the shallow oval in #11?
