I have for sale, from my own private collection, an iconic Large Size Character Jug. Designed by Harry Fenton and produced in 1947 Only. Variation One with Brown Hat, with Blue Peak, Blue Coat and Pearl Buttons. This original version of’Arry’, a depiction of a London Costermonger, was soon discontinued as it was deemed that production costs were excessive. It was replaced in late 1947, by the normal brown coloured production jug. Rarely seen for sale! Fully marked to the base with the Royal Doulton Lion and Crown, First Quality. Standing at 6 1/2 ins tall. The jug is in Mint condition with no chips, cracks, glaze crazing or restoration guaranteed. A wonderful character jug , he looks fantastic on display. I HAVE MANY OTHER ROYAL DOULTON PIECES FOR SALE RIGHT NOW, INCLUDING RARE FIGURINES, JUGS AND SERIESWARE. PLEASE TAKE A LOOK! Please note that any white flashes are camera reflections. I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING DOULTON FOR OVER 25 YEARS AND HAVE ALWAYS HAD A WEAKNESS (SOME WOULD SAY AN OBSESSION) FOR CHARACTER / TOBY JUGS, KINGS WARE, SERIES WARE AND FIGURINES ESPECIALLY PRE 1980’S PIECES. HAVING RETIRED EARLY IN 2006, DUE TO POOR HEALTH, I HAVE HAD A LOT MORE TIME TO DEVOTE TO MY HOBBY /COLLECTION AND ENJOY NOTHING MORE THAN SCOURING ANTIQUES FAIRS, AUCTIONS AND E-BAY FOR INTERESTING PIECES. I LOVE CONVERSING WITH OTHER COLLECTORS WORLDWIDE. THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING NEW TO DISCOVER! YOU CAN MESSAGE ME ON E-BAY AT ANY TIME. MANY THANKS FOR YOUR INTEREST.
