advertising Pub and water jugs

Welcome to the Pub Jug section of my web site. Some of the pub jugs shown are again from my own collection. Others shown are photographs taken at the bottles fairs I have visited. Many thanks to all of you who have allowed me to take photographs.

These are the advertising jugs which were found on the bar of the local public house, and were used to contain water for adding to drinks. The pub jugs are transfer printed with advertisements for the company who had them made.
