A collection of five ceramic advertising water jugs produced for various Scotch whisky and beverage brands. The group includes a tall, pale yellow Carlton Ware? jug with a rectangular form, featuring the transfer-printed inscription William Grant’s Family Reserve FINEST SCOTCH WHISKY and a portrait of William Grant. The base of this jug bears a black printed cursive mark Carlton Ware above MADE IN ENGLAND and TRADE MARK, set against an extensively crazed cream glaze. A barrel-shaped red jug with a black D-handle displays the Haig SCOTCH WHISKY branding.
Two black-glazed Wade jugs are present: a large vessel with a gold-rimmed spout for The GLENTURRET Single Highland Malt SCOTCH WHISKY AGED 12 YEARS, featuring a green printed base mark WADE Regicor LONDON ENGLAND within wheat-stalk borders; and a Teacher’s jug inscribed TEACHER’S Scotch Whisky in a class of its own, with a circular green base mark featuring a stylized pm logo, WADE and ENGLAND. The collection is completed by a smaller black-glazed Minster Ginger Ale jug featuring a castle-style logo.
