There is a majolica jug (not mug) with raised fern pattern listed in the 1889 catalogue and a colour photo is shown of one on page 7. However it is solid majolica glaze, not with the fern picked out in green; the caneware type body and handle on your example are not like anything else to be found in the book. I have never heard of Lithgow making this kind of frog / toad /&nbsp;surprise mug, but I am no expert.</FONT></P> Sun, 24 Feb 2019 12:07:36 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Coins-Stamps-Collectables/Early-Lithgow/m-p/2222086#M9540 siddieswans 2019-02-24T12:07:36Z
