General Douglas MacArthur character jug extra large - Grimwades circa 1940

General Douglas MacArthur character jug large size modelled by Billy Grindy and produced by Grimwades of Stoke-on-Trent, England, circa 1940 with is Royal Winton tradename. Douglas MacArthur (1880-1964) was an American military leader who served as General of the Army for the United States, as well as a field marshal to the Philippine Army. He had served with distinction in World War I, was Chief of Staff of the United States Army during the 1930s, and he played a prominent role in the Pacific theater during World War II. MacArthur was nominated for the Medal of Honor three times and received it for his service in the Philippines campaign. This made him, along with his father Arthur MacArthur Jr., the first father and son to be awarded the medal. He was one of only five men to rise to the rank of General of the Army in the U.S. Army, and the only one conferred the rank of field marshal in the Philippine Army. An infantry sword forms the handle of the jug. The General Douglas MacArthur character jug is known in five sizes with this being the largest. The other sizes stand 6", 5", 4 1/4", and 3" tall.
