Cookie Jar

My object is a piece of pottery with cookies surrounding the entire outside. The top of it also has cookies and a walnut in the center. My great-grandma purchased it in the early 1950s at Ogden's Grocery Store in Stilwell, OK. She purchased it using S&H green stamps which was one of the first retail loyalty programs. She would always store cookies in it and her husband, my great-grandpa, would always sneak one cookie to each grandchild. This jar reminds my mom about her grandma and grandpa and about all of the great times she had with them.
Place(s): Stilwell, OK
