Collecting Little Red Riding Hood Jars

It's a confusing genealogy -- trying to figure out the true and accurate history of the Louise Bauer Little Red Riding Hood jar. Is your jar a Hull, Regal or Royal China and Novelty Company? Did McCoy make a Little Red Riding Hood jar (NO!)?

Although not all the answers are known, these pictures and the article Little Red Riding Hood Jars, a Confusing Genealogy will help you figure out what you have or what shouldn't buy.

There are numerous Little Red Riding Hood cookie jars made, ranging in price from under fifty for Jonal to well over $1000. for a Metlox jar. Add gold trim to a Hull Little Red Riding Hood or put a different decal on it and it can be well over $1000. But many new folks get fooled and purchase a reproduction or fake thinking it is the same jar (Hull) they saw in a cookie jar book.

Prices can fluctuate widely with the Internet, so do your homework before spending big bucks on a jar that might wind up to be a reproduction or is, in reality, an inexpensive newer jar.
