<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DanaB, post: 1291816, member: 10739&quot;]Sorry to here you didn&#039;t have luck with your jug Ownerbybear. But UK toby jugs are much more popular than you think. I buy all the time from the UK and see a lot of tobys way out of my league in value. It&#039;s an acquired taste as they say. For people who collect, and there are many of us, finding the right jug, the rare jug, the one I&#039;ve been looking for a long time jug can be a tremendous find! It&#039;s like anything that someone collects. But those of us who collect toby jugs are a rare breed ourselves. It&#039;s an old art form. Even if some have been made in more recent years, it still started in the 1750s. And character jugs, just the heads, didn&#039;t come in until sometime in the 1800s. So it&#039;s not like we collect Coca Cola items. But once you&#039;ve been bitten by the toby jug bug, it&#039;s not something that you tend to buy just one of. I have somewhere between 400-600 jugs. It&#039;s been too long since I&#039;ve counted and so I&#039;d say it&#039;s probably over 500 at least. And I really need to invest in a much larger cabinet! Cause I&#039;ve outgrown what I&#039;m in now! But I can say, no one I know collects them. And anytime I mention to anyone what I collect, no one knows what they are. But I live in the southern US and it&#039;s not tremendously popular here. So when I say I tend to buy from all over the world, I do. I buy where they are more popular and the UK is one of those places because let&#039;s face it, England is the birthplace of the Toby Jug![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
