Sometime in the mid 80's, a member of our club bought two rectangular 12" pots in Japan. They're very clean and precise. Look to be mold made to my eye. One is made from a gray clay and unglazed. The other is made from a white/beige clay and has a satin blue glaze. Can anybody read the chop marks.?

First one appears to be contemporary Chinese. Second one is indecipherable to me.
There is a facebook group connected to solid databases that can potentially help.

I tried joining the face book group, but after several days, haven't been accepted. I also tried shooting Ryan Bell a face book message and he hasn't responded.There is a facebook group connected to solid databases that can potentially help.

I think my approval took 10-14 days. I totally forgot about it and then it appeared one day.
From what I can gather, Ryan juggles a ton of stuff online, and I am sure he has both a professional and personal life, so give it a little more time!
