Collecting Vintage Cookie Jars

[Ellene Meece]

"A cookie jar collection brings a smile to everyone's face, whether young or old. Many are taken back to their grandma's kitchen with the smell of cinnamon wafting in the air and the selection of that one "perfect" cookie taken carefully from her cookie jar.

It's those childhood memories that are responsible for many collections, especially with cookie jar collectors.

These resources will help you find that elusive jar, put a value on a jar you already have or help start a new collection!" writes expert, Barbara Crews, on Cookie Jar Collecting Resources.

As far as I know, almost every Pottery Manufacturer included cookie jars in their line...Bauer, McCoy, Shawnee to name a few.
