In this segment, appraiser David Lackey characterizes the man depicted on the Staffordshire platter as a "farmer," because at the time of the recording he was unsure of his identity. Thanks to a viewer in Camden, New Jersey, we now know more about his identity. According to the Web site "Art & Architecture of New Jersey," the man with the walking stick is Quaker preacher and anti-slavery activist Richard Jordan (1756-1826), on his farm near present-day Camden, as sketched toward the end of his life by his friend William Mason.
