Markings
Vertical ink stamps with "FULPER" and the number 4021 impressed which indicates the style or shape. Some Fulper marks are impressed, others are stamped, and others are raised. The factory did not use any particular mark for a corresponding period. They used them at random, therefore, unless a piece is listed in a catalogue, it is impossible to date Fulper pieces according to their marks.
