I am new to the antique business, as mentioned, but from a Huxford book
I borrowed from the store, most CJs have the #7 mark -- McCoy and USA,
which was used from 1939 to present.

I was antiquing this afternoon and ran across an antiques store with
several McCoy reproductions. They clearly state that they are
reproductions -- yet they also state they were made with the original
mold. ???????????

I found it easy to tell the difference between the real McCoy and the
repro. The repro LOOKS new.

A question. Was there a mark on the original McCoy cookie jars? If so,
what should I be looking for?
