Illustrated by Lord Mackintosh in his Connoisseur article of June 1954 where the author suggests that it was possibly intended as a caricature of the Prince Regent. A few other examples are recorded including one by Vic Schuler, Collecting British Toby Jugs (3rd Edn, 1999), p.77 and discussed at p.49 where the author states that only six examples of the model were known at the time of writing.
