Marked examples appear to have moulded bodies with applied sprigs. Several similar examples have been seen, this one holds 4 pints. It has the standard trio of men sprig, the OLD WILL 1761 sprig copied? from Port Dundas and also an unusual toper sitting astride a barrel marked "YOU MAY TALK ABOUT INCOME TAX BUT GIVE ME XX". This must also be borrowed or copied as it also appears on an flagon dated 1855, some 14 years before the opening of this pottery. It also has individual topers cut out of the trio.
