This Santa Ana dough bowl was originally in the Gallegos Collection which was sold in 1990 by Morning Star Gallery in Santa Fe. The collection was first published in a book entitled Two Hundred Years of Historic Pueblo Pottery: The Gallegos Collection with text written by Francis H. Harlow. The description by Harlow for this dough bowl is as follows:
"Despite the general decline in pottery quality at Santa Ana after about 1850 there were, nevertheless, a few vessels made that exhibit surviving skill in at least a few of the potters. This bowl is a good example.
