A very nice big old jenever jug. Equipped with ear for carrying. With inscription: GOODWIN TIDSWELL, Ltd MANCHESTER Used to be filled with rum and handed out to the soldiers. The contents of these war jugs are in most cases 1 English gallon (4.546 litres) The contents of these jugs had to be divided among 64 people in 1914 and this once a week. A soldier was therefore entitled to 7 cl rum per week and it was certainly not enough to stay warm. This jug is bigger and probably double in content. In perfect condition, free from breaks or cracks. Height: 45 cm. Diameter jug: 24 cm. For the collector and very decorative! Will be carefully packaged and sent by insured mail.
