The listing, Vintage "Old King Cole" Cookie Jar JAPAN has ended.
RE-LISTED, previous winner had to let it go so here it is again. I hope I get as much as I did before because this is an AWESOME Collectible Piece.
Up for bids is a Vintage "Old King Cole" Cookie Jar marked JAPAN on the bottom
The piece is 12 1/4" tall 7 and Wide and 5 1/2 Deep.and in great condition for it's age except for a 1/4" hairline crack across 3 corners on the top of the base which you can't see if it closed. I tried to capture them in pictures the best I could. There's also a chip UNDERNEATH but does Not go through the piece at all and has no hairlines coming from it. It also has very light age crazing, so some of the pictures are just because I was trying to capture it.
It evidently had red painted circles on the hat because there are still small amounts of painted 1/2 circles. The white circle on top of the hat is paper which was a sticker from the estate sale I got it from.
