I told you all about our day of exploring Monday and my find of an antique McCoy Cookie Jar. Here is a photo of it.
It is in the brown drip design which McCoy is known for doing all kinds of miscellaneous pieces in this design, such as figurines, dinnerware, ovenware, etc.
I purchased this one for only $8.00! I am happy with the find and haven't decided yet if I should keep it or sell it.
What's your vote on that matter? Should I keep it or sell it? They are listed on Ebay in a range of $20 to $45.

I actually took it to the flea market today when I went!! I would never use it. I have a rooster cookie jar (my youngest grandson loves chickens and roosters) and I chose to keep that one. Besides I like chickens too- except for killer rooster!! He gave me evil looks today!! I had to shake my board at him!!

That rooster really belongs in a pot of chicken and noodles! He's a meanie for sure.

I like McCoy pottery. If you need it, keep it...if you don't, sell it. Good luck and have a great day.

Do you need it? I got one last year at a Christmas party I could sell it because I don't need it. I have one and I rarely use cookie jars anyway I have one for pet snacks though This jar I like though because it has a small cat in it and is a homey scene

I would keep the jar since it looks good.

I'm trying to de-clutter though, and since I don't need 2 cookie jars, I packed that one up today and took it to the flea market. I'm keeping my rooster cookie jar. It will go more with my "old country house." Although the McCoy cookie jar would too!!

@kareng ......I can certainly understand that. I enjoy watching Taco Stacks on YouTube. His finds are amazing. Weird what people throw out.
