Clifford Cornell was the founder, owner, and president of the Cleveland Flux Company of Ohio. A consummate self-promoter and master of public relations, Cornell (1892-1960) knew the value of “branding” long before the concept caught fire on Madison Avenue. Starting in the 1920s, Cornell put his name, and the name of Cleveland Flux Company, on numerous promotional items, which were given as gifts to customers, friends, and business associates. Some of these rare items are still circulated among collectors, and none are more in demand than the custom produced Royal Doulton Cliff Cornell Toby Jugs. In 1956, Cornell commissioned Doulton to create a portrait Toby of himself, designed in the image of the British statesman, Winston Churchill. There were only 500 made. This is in pristine condition. no chips or cracks. very collectable 9 1/2" Tall
