Chubby Toby jug large size produced by Clokie and Co. of Castleford, England, circa 1920. This large, rotund Chubby Toby has a happy expression and his hands thrust into his jacket pockets. Classes for amateurs to paint pottery began in Castleford about 1920 and went on until the 1950s. The Chubby Toby undecorated jug was made at Clokie and Co. and after painting it was returned to the pottery for its gloss firing. Proclaiming "The Jug That Cheers", this is a promotional jug for M. Hart Monmouth Arms pub in London, England.
