Picked up a head scratcher this weekend at a GIANT antique show here in town.
Apparently there was a ton of good stuff earlier in the weekend (Friday) that my buddy picked up. I couldn't get out there until Sunday but I guess he didn't scour good enough. The jug stands approx. 10" or so, is a thick ceramic with a cork stopper. Not a maker mark on it. Best part is - it is still a 1/3 full of batter. Doesn't smell (butter and all) and the cork is heavily scented of spicy goodness! Going to have to be UBER careful cleaning it out as I don't want to take off any of the stickers.
Couldn't get a great shot of the back sticker but it does have a 1946 copyright and the addy in Emmeryville doesn't have a zip code so made pre - 1966?
Anybody got more info? Didn't see it in Tiki Quest and looked on the net to no avail.

These aren't that uncommon, at least in California, what is uncommon is to find them with the stickers on them. As your surmised these for the for the general public to take home and make their own Hot Buttered Rum concoctions.
