JUG, musical, bust, King Edward VIII

H1993.361

This jug is a bust of King Edward VIII. The music box which fits into the recess in the base, plays ' God Save the King' and like the base of the jug handles is marked (faintly) 'RISING SUN MOTIVE/ EXETER/ ENGLAND'. It is thought that EXETER is the manufacturer. The music mechanism is marked 'SWISS'. The colour of this jug is pale cream.
