Vince McDonald has a wealth of information for both novice and expert collectors. He has collected teapots for many years, his personal collection is 1600 strong and is considered one of the best personal collections in the world.
McDonald says " I also run the Teapot Collectors Club here in England, and organise the national event each year in Stoke on Trent. Teapot 2001 A Teapot Odyssey, is the theme for 2001."
Totally Teapots is completely independent from manufacturers. The club is for people who collect all kinds and makes of teapots. It was founded in October 1998 after discovering that there was no organization or association devoted to Teapot Collectors. Check out the Totally Teapots Club web site with an active Buying/Selling board, teapot articles and a Teapot Speciali-Tea Gallery.
