<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DanaB, post: 1955026, member: 10739&quot;]Sorry, but yes clay would be cleaned and used but I do know more about tobys and character jugs as I have studied and collected tobys for over 40yrs. And yes there are fakes. There&#039;s always someone who thinks they know more than I do and I find it hard pressed to find that to be true unless I were to find a true collector which I never have. I&#039;m planning a trip to the American Toby Museum this year and I will finally meet people who do know more than me! I don&#039;t claim to know everything but I know an aweful lot! I would not offer the advise I did if I didn&#039;t know what I was offering. This jug has many signs of being hand made. So if you have knowledge of toby or character jugs other than to offer that they don&#039;t sell for much, which you&#039;ve stated before, then please add that information instead. Because what you&#039;ve indicated implies that I have no knowledge at all. This is far from true. Tobys are my passion and I have spent a lifetime studying and searching every scrap of info I can find. I know very well what they can sell for. I see them all the time across the internet. And the older jugs get the bigger prices. Heck there are jugs that can go for over $1200! So I know what I&#039;m talking about and if I didn&#039;t I would not offer advice. Maybe you should do the same when it comes to toby or character jugs! Its obvious you are not knowledgeable in this field.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
