American Toby Jug Museum 

Archie character jug designed by Tony Sarg and produced by Stangl Pottery of Flemington, New Jersey, circa 1935. Archie is a sophisticated gentleman. With his removeable bowler hat and handlebar moustache, he has a very distinctive, English appearance. This is one in a series of Stoby jugs, meaning Stangl toby jug, produced by the pottery. Archie comes with a bowler hat that he wears out on the town and when removed, serves as an ashtray. Known to Stangl collectors as stoby jugs (Stangl toby jugs), full colorways were original production in the 1930s to 1950s. Solid colorways were produced in the 1960s and 1970s.
