The Porcelain Outhouse

As a dump digger, it is not unusual to dig something very peculiar, unusual, or something you didn't know ever even existed. Below is one of those finds.


The Porcelain Outhouse
 My most unusual find is a porcelain outhouse figurine! Yes, you read that correctly. Believe it or not, many of these humorous figurines were produced back in the day. It would have been quite ironic if I had dug this up in an actual privy (another word for outhouse).
Pictured below is my prized possession, and a side by side of the closest match I could find. I showed it to a fellow bottle collector and he believes it was produced in Japan before WWII.

























Thanks for reading!
