#2037 - McCOY POTTERY -- "JUPITER 60" STEAM ENGINE DECANTER (MCCORMICK) - $45.00

NEAT ITEM! THIS IS THE "JUPITER 60" STEAM ENGINE DECANTER MADE IN 1969 BY MCCOY FOR THE MCCORMICK DISTILLING COMPANY. NICE SIZE -- MEASURES 13" LONG, 6 1/2" TALL (AT TALLEST). I'VE PLACED THIS ITEM IN THE BARGAIN BIN, IT HAS SOME MISSING PAINT FLECKS -- NOTHING MAJOR OR SERIOUS AND COULD BE EASILY COLOR TOUCHED UP IF YOU CHOOSE. THIS IS A GREAT ADDITION TO A COLLECTION.

#1999 - McCOY POTTERY -- GRAPES CUSPIDOR (GREEN) - $75.00

VERY OLD UNMARKED MCCOY CUSPIDOR! THIS ONE IS THE DARKER GREEN COLOR, MEASURES 5 1/8" TALL, 7 3/8" DIAMETER. THE DESIGN IS A GRAPE CLUSTER AND PANELS (PANES). CUSPIDOR WAS LATE FROM THE MOLD AS DESIGN IS NOT SHARP. THERE IS NO "USE" EVIDENCE BUT CUSPIDOR DOES HAVE A FEW PRODUCTION FLAWS -- THERE IS A GLAZED OVER HORIZONTAL STRESS ON RIM EDGE, A GLAZE POP, NON-GLAZE SPOT, SOME SMALL FIRED-ON POTTERY FLAKES INSIDE BOTTOM -- ALL ARE PRODUCTION AND ARE VERY COMMON ON THE OLDER POTTERY PIECES -- THIS ONE IS FROM THE 1920s!! VERY NICE ITEM TO ADD TO AN OLDER STONEWARE COLLECTION.

THERE IS A 1/8" ROUND SHAPE NON-GLAZE ON BOTTOM PART OF BLANKET -- THIS SPOT APPEARS TO BE A GLAZE POP -- I DON'T BELIEVE IT'S DAMAGE, JUST A POP. A SUPER NICE ITEM, NOT FOUND EVERYDAY!

~~#939 - BRUSH - MCCOY POTTERY -- FROG GARDEN ORNAMENT~~ SOLD

THE NEATEST FROG GARDEN ORNAMENT BY BRUSH-MCCOY! HE MEASURES 6" FROM END TO END AND 4 1/2" WIDE FROM BACK FOOT TO BACK FOOT. HE IS GREEN WITH BROWN STRIPES, CREAMY COLOR BELLY, AND HE HAS BLUE EYES! HAS NO CHIPS OR CRACKS, VERY LIGHT GLAZE CRAZING CAN BE SEEN ON BELLY. THIS ONE IS NOT A PLANTER -- HE IS DECORATIVE ONLY. WHEN WE FOUND THIS ITEM, I NOTICED THAT BOTTOM OF FEET APPEARED TO HAVE BEEN LIGHTLY SANDED (THE COLOR WAS MORE WHITE). ROGER INSPECTED IT AND CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT IT WAS PROBABLY DONE TO MAKE THE FROG SET LEVEL. I THINK HE'S RIGHT -- FROG DOESN'T HAVE THE SLIGHTEST "WIGGLE" WHEN PLACED ON A FLAT SURFACE!
