VARIETIES OF COOKIE JARS

Any outsider would think this to be crazy, but only the people who have grown up eating those special cookies cooked by grandma would appreciate the real value of that glimpse of a cookie jar. It is almost magical – the effect that brings water to your mouths like in the case of that classical conditioning experiment with the dog. It seems like a lot of Americans especially and other kids around the world have had this special experience with cookies which has till today the cookie jar industries. Some of the most amazing products are seen below:

-          Company name: Vandor

-          Jar Specialty: Musicians, especially pop like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Betty Boop etc. Later also joined by other famous celebrities like Marilyn Monroe, Scooby doo, Uncle Sam etc.

-          Company name: Quaker Oats

-          Jar Specialty: Commonly found boxes in market, Aunt Jemina etc.

-          Company name: McCoy

Here we can see the great influence of American tradition, myths, stories, legends and even pop culture clearly visible on the cookie jars. It is like an untold story. These treasured items even today remain a very impressive antique collection. Like the collection of Andy Warhol that was sold for $250,000.

Other items listed in the most valued list may include Superman, Batman, James Dean, Felix the Cat, The Three Stooges, Amazing Grace, Ragtime, Jazz Player, Babe Ruth, Animals, basketball, American Bisque, Animal Crackers, Brush Pottery Jars, Coca Cola, Easter, Entertainment Logos, Encore’s Buddies, Flying saucer, Flamingo, Frog, Football, Foo God, Ghosts, Grant Howard, Halloween, Hearts, Howdy Doody, IGA Circus, Hopalong Casidy, Leprechauns,  Mickey Mouse, People, Penguins,  Planet Hollywood, Sports themes and so many more.

The awesome variety of designs and ideas is just staggering. Nothing more beautiful could be imagined than what the artists inspired from. This whole collection stares right back at you with all the historic themes and stories that come with it. Imagine if you are looking at an ancient inscription on an old cave’s walls. What would you have seen? Their stories, their lives were written on those walls. How they dressed, how they played, how they danced and how they loved is all brought to us by their paintings. There are no words involved as words leave far lesser to your imagination.

The cookie jar undoubtedly are one of these remains of the earlier times when we set on our paths of economic progress, learnt our heavy lessons from the world wars and economic turmoil. They will tell the future generations about the themes and decorations of our lives. When a kid born in 2020 will eat his favorite cookie from a jar carved with Mickey Mouse and Elvis Presley, will he not wonder who these famous personalities are? Perhaps this is our way of writing our stories.

hey folks i’m looking for hull mccoy or Usa Pottery preferably brown drip crockery any body collect any ?

i didnt know what catagory to put this question in but its an antique that i’m lookin for

My sister collected it when it was first released back in the sixties. Every week at the grocery store you could add a piece to your collection for $1 with your grocery purchases. She has the complete set. There is quite a bit of it listed on ebay, and this past week I found quite a bit of it at a local flea market.
