Circa 1951-1959: The variety of pitchers that Frederick Rhead designed and produced for Homer Laughlin is really impressive. This version of a milk jug for the Harlequin line, referred to as the 22 ounce jug, is one of the boldest and jovial design of them all. The jutting handle and spout nearly double its width and the restrained decoration are superb. This example in the 1950s gray glaze is in excellent condtion with no damage, touch-ups or repairs. Please note a small stain on the base of the foot. Nice and even glaze application and no signs of use. 5" Tall by 6 1/2" wide when including the great, angular, art-deco handle.
