I do not think I can convey to you the SCALE of this place. I mean. It's not very big. But it has SO MANY FACES. think library stacks, but filled with mugs at the same density as the backroom of a research library, all in glass fronted, mirror backed, cases. Often there are many of the same one, each in a slightly different size, or maybe with some slight variation that made both worth collecting. Some are beautiful, some are hideous, some are absolute masterworks, others came out of pisspour molds and didn't even have their seams addressed. This is a massive, and impressive, collection.

The American Toby Jug Museum took us pleasantly by surprise. We rang the doorbell during museum hours (Tuesdays 12-5) and were greeted by such a friendly worker who gave us a brief history of toby jugs and then let us explore the many aisles of jugs. There are jugs that will appeal to any and everyone from animals to historical and political figures to cartoon characters. And visiting is FREE! This hidden gem is definitely a spot worth visiting at least once!

During Tuesday hours at 12:45: Buzzed the doorbell twice. Called the phone number. No answer. Sad, because our daughter loves Toby Jugs and made sure to visit during the one day of open hours.
