Staffordshire Child's Mug, "For A Good Boy"
This is a wonderful Staffordshire child's mug C 1840. On a white pottery ground is a green transfer which reads " For A Good Boy." These were made to be given to children as rewards of merit. Usually purchased at fairs and town shops these mugs have a varied subject matter. This is one of the nicest Good boy mugs I have had. It is in excellent condition, considering the little hands over the years. And might have been given to a 19th century child as a birthday gift.
