This cream colored cylinder MCoy cookie jar is decorated with bright red flowers -- some sellers say poppies, we say red hibiscus. In any event. It is a pretty piece with a strong raised McCoy mark on the bottom, no cracks or chips, some very faint crazing, and some paint missing from the flowers. Cookie jars of this shape were produced by McCoy from 1946 - 1954. See http://www.mccoypottery.com/cookiejars/ index number 28 for examples.
