This must be the time of year for Brush cookie jars. Lisa sent these pictures looking for an identification.
My same disclaimer applies as for the last post: I don't know how to tell if a cookie jar is real or fake (lots were reproduced), so please double-check the identification with a cookie jar expert.
The W27 cookie jar is called the "Laughing Hippo" cookie jar, and is pictured on page 135 of Sanford's "The Guide to Brush-McCoy Pottery". It lists the date as 1961, and the price as $450-550 (1992-93 price guide).

My mother in law received a junky monkey cookie jar in 1961 from her mother in law, she gave it to my husband. I love it. Its cute. We hope to pass it on to my daughter. I have no doubt this one is real because of when she received it. I would think that a reproduced would have came out later.
Thanks for the picture! I bought (and sold) the bottom, but didn't know what the top looked like. I love your blog, btw. Keep up the good work!
