Hi,
I am new to this, so please have patience. I have a few vintage cookie jars. I need someone who is knowledgable to tell me if they are truly authentic or not. I have pictures and details about each jar. If you can help me or tell me where to go, I'd sure appreciate it. I have a hull Little Red Riding Hood, a Stella Strawberry and Albert Apple, a Little Bo Peep, a gold tipped Puss N Boots, and a Helen Hutula Tat-L-Tale. I need help, please!!

Thanks,
Brenda

I have found that sometimes I can go onto E-bay and look up things and get a general idea of values I don't know much about cookie jars but I do collect goats and found a lot of info on them on E-Bay


Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the floor in the morning, Satan shudders & says...
'Oh s**t...she's awake!!

I own a ceramics shop, I have some cookie jars, the molds for them are over 20 yrs old, which makes them what they now consider 'vintage'. Im not so sure I agree with how this thought process works, but even though the casting is new, if its from an old mold, 20 yrs or older, is considered 'vintage'

I also have an Alf cookie jar as well as Mother Goose, they are both considered vintage

Hope that helps some

Oh nice!I do a lot of research online to attempt to authenticate my vintage and antique things that I buy.
Check ebay and online auction sites, that will give you a great idea of how much people are selling them for and peoples descriptions really help you look for the details of an authentic piece.
Google search your items, and wikipedia helps too.Theres a market for such things so theres got to be websites and groups dedicated to them. Good luck.
