There are only four other known drum-form teapots by Revere, with three now in public collections. This example is identical to a teapot in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, circa 1782, which is engraved with the monogram of Stephen and Isannah (Hichborn) Bruce. The second example, with ball finial, in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, is recorded in Revere's Daybook in 1782, ordered by Thomas Hichborn for his daughther Elizabeth who married Doddridge Crocker in 1790, (Kathryn C. Buhler, American Silver 1655-1825, 1972, p. 420, fig. 368).
A third drum-form example with beaded borders is in the collection of Yale University Art Gallery, illustrated in Buhler & Hood, American Silver: Garvan and Other Collections in the Yale University Art Gallery, p. 190, fig. 244. The fourth is recorded in Revere's Daybook in 1783 for Moses Michael Hays, illustrated in Jane Bortman, "Moses Hays and his Revere Silver," Magazine Antiques, October 1954, pp. 304-305.
