Collectors unite! Cookie jars have become quite the popular collectible. Some folks collect for monetary value and others for the fond memories they bring of childhood or other like experiences. Some collect for display while others collect for actual use in storing delicious cookies. Needless to say, it really doesn't matter.
Collectible cookie jars can be found in many shapes and designs. Most are made from pottery like ceramic and porcelain, but some come in plastic and others in glass. Some collectible cookie jars are in the form of fruit and vegetables, people and animals, movie characters and more.
You can find licensed characters, food and drink, and even patriotic collectibles. There are cars and boats, homes and buildings, and favorite on-screen personalities. And they all vary in color, shape, size, material, age, and, of course, price.
With all the choices available, there's bound to be a collection of cookie jars for everyone! From Harley Davidson to Harry Potter, Little Red Riding Hood to I Love Lucy, and Star Wars to Uncle Sam, there's a little bit of everything. Younger shoppers may even appreciate the Power Puff Girls collectible cookie jars while some more mature folks might find humor in the Red Hat Lady collection.
There are Christmas collections and Halloween collections, vintage advertising collections of icons, spokespeople and logos, and there's Disney and Warner Bros. collections. Lower-end collectible cookie jars can run from under $25 to the $51-$75 price range, whereas more antique, harder to find jars can easily be well over $100.
So, whether you're looking to start a collection or add to a new one, whether you're looking for ceramic, glass, plastic or porcelain, you'll know that just one piece can be the start of something very special to come.
