I look for it to really take off. Although the spotlight is just beginning to shine on Western, it's already been glaring on rolling pins. Rolling pins have slowly and steadily increased in desirability and price during recent years. Ironically, it was a rolling pin that exemplified how crazy the market for Illinois stoneware and pottery can be. The club is still active and going strong.
Illinois stoneware is still available, with good pieces like the hum bug turning up.
But sometimes it can be a long walk between where the market once was and where it is today. Getting from one place to the other sometimes takes both direction and time.
