Item 6329
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this wonderful 4 1/2" Mini Motto Jug.  
 
This beauty reads, "Motto Jug. 'If You Try Me Once You Will Try Me Again." Detrick Distilling Company, Dayton, Ohio." 
 
This Dayton company made a series of a dozen Motto Jugs around 1900, one without a border around the motto in large letters and one with a border in small letters.  These jugs have retained their popularity with collectors due to their small size and humorous mottos.
 
This example is from the series with a border around the motto and the motto in small letters. Stands 4 1/2" tall. 
 
Excellent Condition.  As made. No damage of any kind.
