This fissure was created while they were perfecting the "safety notch"
Early Mark before Trademarked c 1949 - beautiful dark clay - visible on base rim - edges were not wiped of glaze. - light gloss to the glaze - not a high-shine. - this glaze is sometimes called "Shining Sand" - glaze was discontinued in 1951. - 6 slots are situated on one side. - slots may vary slightly in depth & shape. - slots are lightly rounded out at their peak. - 1940s deeply carved stylized Heath mark. - possibly crafted while Brian Heath was working out the safety-notch. - made before the notch came to a more decisive pointed V shape. - heavier build then Heath Pieces made after 1951.
