The Pot & Puma (named for Frankoma's first trademark) is the  journal written for the information, education and entertainment of collectors of Frankoma Pottery, and is designed to make its members the most knowledgeable, best educated collectors of anything anywhere. Joniece and Donna Frank, daughters of founders John and Grace Lee Frank, author a running feature article titled Joniece's Believe It Or Not, detailing little-known facts about Frankoma's history and production over seven decades, and revealing intimate stories about their artist parents. The Pot & Puma is filled with articles authored by various experts in the many facets of Frankoma collecting. Frankoma Family members are also encouraged to contribute articles and stories relating their serious, tragic and humorous collecting stories. Also welcome are other tales of common interest to other Frankoma collectors such as "Why I Collect Frankoma" and "How I Started Collecting Frankoma." Don't worry that you're not a writer! Our editor can do wonders with even a slim story line, and you'll always have the final approval of your story before it's printed. EDITORIAL STAFF CO–EDITORS Donna Frank Nancy L.
