Vintage Monmouth Ill. (Western Stoneware) Cookie Jar

Nice glazed pottery crock. Incised on the bottom of the cookie jar "Monmouth Ill. USA" inside of a leaf. (Notice the old way of initialling Illinois. Very nice condition (never used to my knowledge) with only a small smooth indentation on the edge of the lid that I think was done in production or been there so long it looks like it belongs. There are the usual factory imperfections found in old pottery. It has "COOKIES" printed on the front of the jar. 8.5 inches tall, diameter across top 6 1/2 inches. Pottery is made by Western Stoneware but most people just refer to it as Monmouth Pottery. Although one like this was listed as from the late 30's, I only remember it from the late 50's or early 60's, so you decide. Price is $40.00 plus S & H for 6 lbs. Insurance is optional at $1.65.
