Rare prattware "Lord Hou" sailor Toby jug Staffordshire c.1790

Vic Schuler refers to two known examples of this Toby jug (presumably celebrating Admiral Lord Howe) one of which is in the Nottingham Castle museum and the other sold at Christies in 1979 - this is the third known example. Well decorated and bearing the hand painted inscription to the underbase in iron red "Admiral Hou". A rare and interesting Toby jug.
