Such a deal! How about this huge old porcelain soup tureen? Can't believe they made 'em that big, but that's what it said on the label
Ahhhh... someone recognized it for what it isYa ever hear of a chamber pot?

"Oooooohhh.... we used to DREAM of 'avin a thunder mug under t'bed... WE had to walk 2 miles down t'road in our bare feet, to the communal bog which was 100' down an old mine shaft, 'angin' on to a rope for dear life...."All the upstairs bedrooms at my grandparents house in England had thunder mugs under the beds. I thought grandad had taken up the tuba.
