Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this Early 1 Gallon Ovoid Jug with Incised Fish from New England. 
 
Dating to the early 19th century, the form and fish decoration are similar to jugs with this decoration made by Jonathan Fenton of Boston, Massachusetts and William Pecker of Merrimacport, Massachusetts, but unique in itself.
