There really aren't a lot of collectors for the 30's big stuff. Even the Whitehouse Vinegar gallon size are a tough sell. There may be an interior designer that has just the spot for it though.

The bigger they are, not only the harder they fall, but also the harder it is to sell as it is harder to get a place to put it. But cowsEatMaize is right, an interior decorator could use it. Definitely a nice piece for them to get their paws on.

So Heather, I have been involved wit a lot of jug making at Thatcher Glass and I don't recall any double handled jugs. That would have been a tough bottle to make and get adequate glass to fill the handles properly. I can't imagine what shipping would cost, but I would sure like to study the seam lines to see if both handles were made in the neckring or in the parison mold. That is because I am a mechanical engineer that worked about 36 years involved in making glass products. RED Matthews
