In 1994, artist Brenda White released a book (along with Jesse Rhodes) entitled, Disney in Clay: The Art of Brenda White (hardcover, 247 pages, ISBN: 0964293110). An array of Disney-themed works were created and pictured throughout the book, including several one-of-a-kind Snow White hand-painted and hand-crafted glazed ceramic pieces.

Two years later, the piece went up for sale by Heritage Auctions, the source of these photos. Inscription reads, "Bo and Vicky, You are so supportive. When will you come to Maine? Love ya, Brenda and Jesse."
