Ketchup cutie! This mid-century "Blondie" Ketchup jar features a round-headed blonde sweetheart with huge lashed eyes, rosy cheeks, a little smile, and a blue bow in her curls. Her head and red scalloped collar form the lid, with the narrow ceramic spoon built in underneath. The white two-handled jar wears eight hand-painted red stripes, raised buttons, and "Ketchup" in black lettering.
The Blondies are one of the better-known Japanese condiment jar lines of the 1950s and early 1960s, styled after Holt Howard's Pixieware. Ketchup is one of the three Blondies in the earliest documented group. No maker has ever been positively identified.
