November, 1893 -- “My pottery has been one of the busiest in America, ... I attribute this solely to the fact that the celebrate ‘Eagle and Lion’ stamped Laughlin ware has been recognized by the trade as one of the finest lines of earthenware made in the world, and also the easiest to sell. ...” 

—Homer Laughlin quoted in Crockery and Glass Journal, Nov, 1893
