Royal Doulton Jugs, 10th Edition - A Charlton Standard Catalogue

The 10th edition of Royal Doulton Jugs by Jean Dale will be released in North America on May 12th, 2008, and in the United Kingdom two weeks later on May 28th, 2008. After tracking the prices of Royal Doulton jugs for the past six months, using dealers websites, land and internet auctions, it became obvious that the jug market was alive and well. The downward trend in prices has stopped, certainly there are moments, especially on internet auction sites where bargains appear, but overall prices are steady to slightly higher. Although it is doubtful we will see the glory days of the late 1990s and early 2000s again, we should expect a modest rise in prices over the next year or two. All bodes well for Royal Doulton Jug market. The 10th edition is down 10% in page count from the 9th edition as we tightened up the book, while adding 26 new issues. Since our costs are in Canadian dollars, the strength of the Canadian dollar has resulted in our having to adjust the cover price in the different markets. New to the 10th edition are three new series: First World War Military Leaders, six in the series, limited to 100 jugs each; Myths, Legends and Fantasies, four in the series, limited to 250 jugs each; and U.S. World Wars, four in the series, limited to 350 jugs each. The character jug General MacArthur has been added to the Great General Series, and the Character Jug of the Year for 2007 and 2008 were Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Charles respectively, limited to their year of issue. The complimentary International Collectors Club jug for 2007 was the North Staffordshire Fife Player and for 2008 the Nurse. New images, information and colour variations have been added to Harry Simeon s Best Is Not Too Good variety of stoneware jugs and derivatives. The addition of 26 new jugs by Royal Doulton in a two-year period certainly does not stretch the pocket book, which makes for a better outlook for the future.

This catalogue is indispensable for any collector of Royal Doulton character jugs. It gives you some idea of the value of the jugs for buying or selling in the current market. For the new collector it also gives you the history of the character jugs.

The book is an excellent guide to Royal Doulton toby jugs, including information on each jugs age, the variations you can get, who designed it etc and a current market price in UK pounds and US dollars which I found helpful. The pictures are clear and it is a catalogue well worth getting.

If you are a collector of Royal Doulton Character Jugs, this book will be a must-have. It's very informative about Doulton's production, backstamps, characters, and general valuation. It gave me a lot of information I did know know.

This book is an excellent, comprehensive reference book to Doulton jugs, and covers the huge number which have been produced in the last sixty or so years. Royal Doulton have slowed down on their output of late and this two year update includes just 26 new jugs as compared with the previous edition. This book is invaluable to any serious collector as a reference work. My main criticism would be that although already not cheap, I am sure we would all be willing to pay a few more pounds if the pictures were all in colour - is colour printing that expensive?However, do take the price guide with a pinch of salt. Charlton do have an unenviable task in collating information from many different sources - auctions, internet, dealers etc. and take an informed view as to what the current market value of any particular jug is. However, that is not to say this is the 'right' price and you will find that a bit of patience and a lot of searching around will mean you can normally buy much more keenly.

most up to date book on royal doulton jugs 5 stars ...is very well done..can find all the jugs that are produced
