I bought these at a local show. English made in the late 50's early 60's. Poor qualilty but they have a certain charm.

You're right, they are poor quality, but they have a certain charm.

On the brighter side, the "Made in England" on the box is a plus!

Thanks for sharing.

I like it that they're called "Old Crocks".

It's interesting that they have a cowboy and an Indian pictured on the box, too.

How many different ones are there in the set?

What year were they made?

I think they are definitely worth owning, especially with all the packaging intact.
