The Drunken Parson toby jug - Wood Potters of Burslem 1993

The Drunken Parson toby jug produced by Wood Potters of Burslem of Burslem, England, in 1993. The Drunken Parson toby jug is seated and looking to his right in a stupor with a leering expression, his tricorn hat askew on his head. He is attempting to pour wine from the jug in his right hand into the wine glass in his left. A parson is an ordained Christian person responsible for a small area, typically a parish. The term was formerly often used for some Anglican clergy and, more rarely, for ordained ministers in some other churches.
