A rag and pot man was a rag gatherer who exchanged pots for rags, bones, old glass etc. In the morning the rag gatherer would collect earthenware pots and pans from the rag merchant. With these he would walk round - often as much as twenty miles - calling at likely houses to exchange pots for rags etc. At the end of the day he returned to the rag merchant's and was paid a few pence if the rags he had collected were worth more than the pots he had given out. In 1849 1/6d (7.5p) was regarded as a very good return for a day's work.
