[Mccoypottery-talk] Little Red Riding Hood Cookie Jar

[Betty F. Nelson]

Sounds like you live close to Canton!  I think you could probably find anyt=
hing there and there is no policing body to help protect you from fraud or =
thieves.  You really need to read some books and learn from places like The=
 Mccoy talk. I can not imagine anyone paying that sort of price on just the=
 word of the dealer.

I am afraid many of the fraudelent dealers have been helped by "trustworthy=
, dependable" resources like the Antique Roadshow being caught with their l=
ies hanging out to make the show more interesting.
And any of the honest dealers that have gotten tired of trying to convince =
the customer that LRRH cookie jar was never made by McCoy. I strongly recco=
mmend a couple of good books on pottery.
