As mentioned on the survey page, the Friar Tuck and Ranger Bear were tied for first place, with the Sailor Elephant close behind. Below are some of the comments received with the survey.
- I have quite a few Twin Winton jars. I love them all.
- I relate to any Winton pieces, especially to the eyes, cuteness and attention to detail in Don's designs.

- Twin Winton jars are my favorites! I have about 50+ jars and lots of go-withs, even dinnerware.

Note from the Wintons:
Thanks to all you collectors who took time to comment on Twin Winton jars. We had a wonderful time reading them and appreciate the nice things you had to say! Norma says didn't know she has been married to an icon all these years!!
It was very interesting to see the results of the Twin Winton survey and it brought us some surprises too. Thanks to you Barb, for this fun survey.
