The Watt did not look at all like the McCoy and very little was produced before the Watt fire in l965. The authors of the Watt book do not know what the Canonsburg looked like. If you have brown drip marked Kathy Kale, I would guess it was made by McCoy from the picture in the Watt book.

I'm not a McCoy collector, but I'm familiar with the name. I took two tulip vases down from the kitchen shelf to put daffodils in and casually turned them over. Much to my suprise they were marked McCoy! These vases belonged to my mother, and I remember seeing them around the house when living in Florida as a child. They were one of the things I wanted after she passed away, for sentimental reasons. I thought they were lovely, but had no idea they were McCoy. They are 8 inches tall with 2 yellow tulips forming the vase, the leaves are green and base is brown. If anyone has seen them in a book I would appreciate knowing the year they were made and present value. I would like to collect McCoy, but it's hard to find in western Canada. That's the fun in looking!

What is the difference between reproductions and the "real" McCoy Cauliflower CJ? I have researched several books about this. Normally a reproduction is smaller. Wonderful World of Cookie Jars show it to be 11 3/4 inches high. So does the The Complete CJ book by Schneider. However Collectors Encyclopedia of CJ Book II shows repro side by side with original Mammy-The original is shown as smaller than the repro. It says "note elongated base and loss of detail on the left cookie jar." The left CJ is the repro. All the CJ books I have shows the mark to be McCoy USA on the original. I can only assume there are several reproductions out there. I have a Mammy that is almost 11 inches high. I would not sell it as the original. I think the original is 11 3/4 inches high. But I am certainly not an expert. Maybe someone can ask Nelson and Billie McCoy. I am sure they have an original. May each of you only buy originals.

There are the two different sized jardineres, two different sized flared top vases, a large urn, a two handled vase, a double-handled (or 4 handled) vase, a tall rectangular vase, a planter, and the wallpocket. The wallpocket seems to be the priciest on the retail market. They came in matte yellow and matte white backgrounds and the rarest of the Blossomtime's are those made with flower colors other than pink. They made only a small number with blue, white and yellow flowers.

We sold so much of our McCoy when the mall we were in for so long closed because at the time my husband didn't think we would do any more shows. However, what I regret is selling any McCoy with cats because I have quite a number of cat pictures, books and figurines. Want #3026 cat with ball of yarn that one of our cats broke, and also the spinning wheel, but probably won't be able to find them at a price a senior citizen is willing to pay. I know what you mean about talking McCoy--did it all the time at shows and when I had time, when I worked part-time at the mall, if there was interest in our pottery, I was off and running. Keep it up, and enjoy it.
