American Toby Jug Museum 

George Custer character jug produced by Bairstow Manor Pottery of Hanley, England, circa 1990. George Armstrong Custer (1839-1876) was a United States Army officer and cavalry commander in the American Civil War and the American Indian Wars. On June 25, 1876, while leading the 7th Cavalry Regiment at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in Montana Territory against a coalition of Native American tribes, he was killed along with every soldier of the five companies he led after splitting the regiment into three battalions. This action became known as "Custer's Last Stand". The handle of the jug is Custer's cavalry sabre.
