<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 242322, member: 44"]I agree, Greg. Tobys are the entire figure while the head ones with the handle usually at the side of the head are referred to as character jugs or mug. Nowwwww... this one seems to be an inbetween one with head and part of the body. The handle is down the back like Toby jugs. I just don't know what to call it. I'm waiting for others to chime in.</p><p><a href="http://www.tobyjugmuseum.com/definition.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.tobyjugmuseum.com/definition.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.tobyjugmuseum.com/definition.php</a></p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, I don't know if or who he is suppose to represent.
