Me too, especially given how prominent the "Liverpool" style was in that period and how much easier it was to get goods across the Atlantic than the Pacific at that time!
My grandpa rode the train to Boston for over two decades, and yet I never once rode the T, despite living just south of Boston for most of my life. It's good to see that they are getting updated train cars, although I have no reason to visit Boston any time soon.
As for that pitcher, that is definitely a reproduction. Imagine if it had been a legitimate antique though! I may have still picked it up just as a conversation piece. After all I love obscure curiosities!
I was surprised that the pitcher in New York History Museum was made in China.

That’s what I’m saying too! 😂

The pitcher was just okay in person, although the story behind it (or it’s similar brethren) was fascinating to me!
