The fitted leather construction, along with the studs, forms the pig's eyes, ears, tail, and four legs, adding plenty of character and playful details. The glass milk bottle, circa 1910s - 1930s, was made by the Travis Glass Company. The bottom is marked “SEALED L.C. TR ONE QUART LIQUID 812-1 REG.”

The leather wrap has a snap closure. I have not attempted to remove it. Please note that removing it may cause damage to the leather or the glass bottle.

Good condition overall. The glass bottle is old, with staining and yellowing, but has no cracks or chips and no unpleasant odor. The stopper is missing, with some cork residue remaining around the opening. The leather wrap has slight staining around the pig's stomach area, plus a few marks and scratches.
