American Toby Jug Museum 

Rob Roy character jug produced by Staffordshire Fine Ceramics of Tunstall, England, circa 1975. Robert Roy MacGregor (1671-1734) was a Jacobite Scottish outlaw, who later became a Scottish and Catholic folk hero. A fictionalized account of his life, "The Highland Rogue", was published in 1723. Rob Roy became a legend in his own lifetime and George I was moved to issue a pardon for his crimes just as he was about to be transported to the colonies. The publication of "Rob Roy" by Sir Walter Scott in 1817 further added to his fame and fleshed out his biography.
