American Toby Jug Museum 

Cow in Dress toby jug in a large size produced by Schafer & Vater of Rudolstadt, Germany, circa 1925. Cattle are large, domesticated, bovid ungulates widely kept as livestock. Mature female cattle are called cows and mature male cattle are bulls. Young female cattle are called heifers, young male cattle are oxen or bullocks, and castrated male cattle are known as steers. Cattle are commonly raised for meat, for dairy products, and for leather. As draft animals, they pull carts and farm implements. In India, cattle are sacred animals. Small breeds such as the miniature Zebu are kept as pets. This young lady cow is dressed in her newest spring dress, ready for a night on the town with her good friends. Her tail forms the handle of the jug. The smaller jug stands 3 1/2" tall.
