Although the mark doesn't look quite right and it's not like his current work, there is a potter called Bill Moore, who might be the maker. In the first edition of BSPM he described his work by saying " Thrown domestic wares in stoneware. Thumb rest on handles." He also mentions using jun glaze, which that blue looks like.

Might be worth contacting him, if only to rule him out.
