Greetings histarchers,
I am looking for some more information on two ceramic vessels excavated from my site in historic Los Angeles. Just to give you a quick background, my site was occupied primarily by Mexican immigrants working on the famous Mount Lowe Railway between 1906 and 1938.
The first vessel is a brown stoneware fragment with a unique molded design. Does anyone happen to know where this vessel was made and it's approximate date of circulation/production? Here are some photos:

The second fragment is a partial maker's mark from a whiteware fragment that reads: "...G(C?)LA.../...E DOHRMAN.../...S ANGELE...")

Many thanks in advance for any and all help!
