3
This building served as Fulper Pottery Company's factory #2 from 1924 until 1935. Its three large kilns are the last known commercial pottery kilns of this type in the State of New Jersey. In 1935 all manufacturing was transferred to factory #3 in Trenton, and the building became a factory outlet and showroom. Stangl's Flemington outlet became renowned for dinnerware bargains of first and second quality. During the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, notable celebrities who frequented the shop included band leader Paul Whiteman, actress Zasu Pitts, and actor Ralph Bellamy. In 1978, the building and property was sold to Pfaltzgraff of York, PA and continued as a pottery outlet and showroom.
