Hi,all! Can anyone tell me about Esmund?  I collect fruit and vegetable coo=
kie jars, I have HNH Vol 1 & 2 and the 3 vol Cookie Jar Collectors.  In HNH=
 #2 there is a round red apple with 2 leaves on the lid.  The leaves are gr=
een and they oppose each other.  My jar is not marked but it is exactly lik=
e the one in the book.  I have 3 more jars that look like this, one is gold=
 with green leaves, one is all rose and marked Esmund, the other is all gre=
en and sort of mottled glaze; I mention that because I also have a pear whi=
ch matches the green apple glaze exactly.  I have seen some auctions on eba=
y which lead me to believe that Esmund was made by McCoy.  If so, when wher=
e and why?
    I started collecting in 1959 when I bought 4 fruit cookie jars at Monto=
gomery Wards.  One was the McCoy Big Red Apple with the strawberry top and =
another was this green pear.  The pineapple and orange have stamped ink 4 d=
igit numbers on the bottom/no glaze.  Could you tell me anything about the =
jars that have stamped numbers? Could you tell me if all the apples that lo=
ok like the red 2 leaf apple are all McCoy?
