Huntsman toby jug wearing a red coat designed by Charles J. Noke and produced by Royal Doulton of Burslem, England, from 1919 to 1930. Traditionally in England, the Huntsman was the person whose responsibility it was to manage an organized hunt, such as a foxhunt, and possibly look after the hounds as well. He loved the Gallop, knows his pack by name and smacks his top boots with his crop to emphasize his charge. Soon, anyone participating on a hunt became referred to as a huntsman. Today the name simply refers to one who hunts or who practices hunting. After generations of English huntsman, fox hunting has recently been outlawed in the United Kingdom.
