Turkey Cookie Jar


McCoy made the turkey cookie jar twice- once in 1945 and again in 1960. This is from the 1960 production. It is marked McCoy, U.S.A. and is 9.25" high. Unusual to find most of the paint intact.
MCCOY WAGON WHEELS

The wagon wheel collection consists of planters, vases and lamps in several different colors. They were produced in the fifties, around 1954.
So far, we have discovered yellow, brown, bluish-gray, green, red and black. This red lamp is the only example of the red wagon wheel that we have found so far.

The Jug-Time Clock


The McCoy Jug-Time Clock was especially difficult to find, and if you do find it, chances are that the stopper in the top is gone or a cork. It wasn't until I found this one that we realized that the stopper was originally ceramic. This clock is in working order and has the original clockworks.
This clock was made by Brush-McCoy in 1924.

McCoy Pitchers


There were many advertising pitchers produced in the 60's for various companies, events, and political parties. The pitchers were made in three sizes of 6 oz., 16 oz., and 32 oz. Some of these pitchers also contain pictures and cute sayings.
The ones shown here are Hersheys, Heini's (a cheese factory in Ohio, Hiram Walker, two Bicentennial, and the small one in the center that says , "God Bless Our Home".
