The Depression changed consumers' buying habits, reducing demand for decorated candles and fine glassware. An attractive but inexpensive alternative was decorated stoneware. From the 1930s to the late 1960s, the Ransburg Company focused on producing hand-decorated stoneware and also metalware products. Cheerful colors and patterns graced Ransburg products. Items were painted mainly yellow, blue, black, white, cream, green, and red. Once a pattern was approved, trained decorators hand painted each cookie jar on the production line. Most competitors did not invest this same amount of time and money in training and were unable to match Ransburg quality.Please supersize all pictures for best details.
