The Rosen’s began collecting Wedgwood’s transfer printed American historical view ware in the most casual
way. On frequent road trips, Beverly would visit antique shops while Benton napped in the car. One fateful
trip changed everything. When Benton wandered into the store, he noticed a commemorative plate depicting
Plymouth Rock. Being an American history buff, he was hooked. Spanning forty years of collecting, Beverly
and Benton assembled an unprecedented 4,000 piece collection of Wedgwood’s production of transfer printed
plates, bowls, tiles, and plaques. Each piece was meticulously catalogued and studied. Together they researched
every piece using the archives at the Buten Museum and the Wedgwood Museum. This wealth of information
was shared with fellow Wedgwoodians when this dynamic duo lectured to the Wedgwood Society of Boston and
the Wedgwood International Seminar. Benton also had the opportunity to lecture to the Wedgwood Society of
London in the fall of 1988 at the London School of Economics. The articles they co-authored were published in
antiques periodicals. In addition, they maintained extensive correspondence with numerous collectors and dealers
to share their knowledge.
Although collectors remember Beverly and Benton for their meticulous scholarship and painstaking research,
they will be best remembered for the warmth of their friendship.
