Another Turn of Century Pub Jug!!!

[mr2real]

Now that you have admitted the Jugs are fake

I never stated the pitchers are fake. I said they were a bad investment based on what I've been told here. To much of a headache for me with all the negative speculation. Thememphisdigger stated, the first jug is authentic. As far as I know, thememphisdigger owns the only known scratch mini jugs from the longinotti co., therefore I took his opinion more serious than yours (a bottle collector) Then I stumbled across this pitcher at a different antique shop. The glaze is different, whiskey is spelt different, it's a different size mold, etc. I knew from the beginning the speculation would be intense. But, I never thought people would think I'm making these jugs myself. I don't know dittly squat about making pottery and I've never even seen a kiln. I too suspect these pitchers were made by the same person. They both have mold lines going straight down from the spout and down the handle, and across the bottom as well. I did contact the whisky pitcher collectors association of America http://pubjug.com/history.html . They told me that It looked like an authenic jug from that time period. I wish there was more I could do to put the speculation to rest, but there simply isn't nothing.

I didn't lie about anything, the whiskey co. is from that time period, so that's what I put. It is just more speculation on your behalf. Proof is in the pudding!!! And I don't think it will be disproved or proven from any input on this forum. Do you have any evidence to prove your claim that some kids made it yesterday? didn't think so

OK I guess I will chime in.So the jug was made the day (before) yesterday not yesterday .Give the kid his props.
Lobey a Jerk ???naw who would say such a thing?
I date that Jug around the 2009 era,and thats pushing it.I don't care what pudding your dishing out.
I would stop talking now before you dig deeper hole.

I hate to beat a dead horse, but what the hell it's dead....the jugs where made by the same person using the same chicken scratch, that's a fact. They were done poorly by an untrained hand, also a fact. The fact that you know nothing about this type of pottery is plain to see, but you have been schooled. It's pretty obvious they're bogus. no company would advertise their product on such shoddy work. Whether you knew this or not doesn't matter. You know now. these are just my opinions.
We here take pride when listing on ebay and advertising to the forum members, that the descriptions are accurate. We don't rip each other off here. You will take flack but you'll live. You're more than welcome to participate on the forum, the more the merrier. But never think your talking to a bunch of dumb hicks here. You'll will find this is the place to come for bottle information. there's no more knowledgeable place on the planet.

The item just got pulled, so rest assured that the only one that got ripped on this pitcher was me!!!! $97 investment down the drain

Well, Joe, we all get duped now and again, it's inevitable.. but you are showing a remarkable sense of responsibility and character by doing the right thing, and I applaud you!
