It seems there were five little toby jugs made - we know there is Robin Hood, Little John and a Pirate..will have to look up the books for the others, though someone else may know. These were made in the early 1950s also.

Now until I saw Little John I thought there was only four. So great to know there is at least five now known. The other four in one of Gail Lamberts books and are:-

1. Maid Marrion - This can be viewed on faceoff.co.nz search sherwood or titian.
2. Gypsy Meg.
3. Pirate (Jolly Roger) I think?
4. Robin Hood
5. Little John

Hope this helps but do wonder if the Browns stopped at Robin Hood, Maid Marrion and Little John when at Sherwood unlike their Aquila series which in addition to the above has Friar Tuck and The Sherrif of Nottingham.
