Robin Hood medium size toby jug produced by Fancies Fayre Pottery of Shelton, England, circa 1950. Robin Hood is a legendary heroic outlaw originally depicted in English folklore. According to legend, he was a highly skilled archer and swordsman. In some versions of the legend, he is depicted as being of noble birth. In the oldest known versions he is instead a member of the yeoman class. Traditionally depicted dressed in Lincoln green, he is said to have robbed from the rich and given to the poor. Holding his trusted bow in his hands, a tree forms the handle of the jug.
