HPA Commemorative History

Hull Pottery Association (HPA) Commemoratives were first produced in 1995. They are available for purchase by members only and are made in limited number.  They are only available once and are not produced again.  Members are asked for input on the next year’s commemorative selection and  after the recommendations are narrowed down to three, members are asked to vote for their favorite.  A local pottery is then contracted to produce the piece.  Commemoratives must be ordered by June 15th and are available for delivery in July of each year. Cost varies according to the piece and production costs.  Shipping is available to those unable to attend the National HPA Show & Sale in Crooksville, Ohio. Listed below are the past commemoratives by year, the quantity produced and original cost per piece.
