Stacey Lambert's Pennywise, made for Matt's son back in 2018. A spider-and-witch mug. A Marvin Bailey Pinhead set with real nails that can snap off in the kiln. A rare Billy Ray Hussey jack-o'-lantern face jug, plus a pro tip on reading his BH marks and kiln numbers. Matt also tells the story of Marvin's son Kenny, who sat through his school's pottery week completely unimpressed. His dad makes pottery every day.\nThen a witch cutout shows up, followed by a whole stack of Finsters.  Sully makes a real cash offer on Marvin Bailey's pumpkin head statue. Matt shares the eBay find he calls the Michael Myers face jug and explains why he thinks eBay devalues art. He closes by remembering Otto and AB the Flag Man.\nChapters:\n00:00:00 | The Halloween Edition\n00:02:09 | Vintage Halloween Decorations & Paper Mache Pumpkins\n00:05:40 | Stacey Lambert's Pennywise\n00:09:55 | Marvin Bailey's Pinhead (With Real Nails)\n00:13:50 | When Is a Face Jug a Halloween Decoration?\n00:17:01 | Marvin's Alien Face Jug & Kenny's Pottery Week\n00:21:45 | Billy Ray Hussey's Jack-o'-Lantern & Kiln Numbers\n00:24:17 | A Howard Finster Witch\n00:37:45 | Stacey Lambert's Skeleton Ashtray\n00:49:41 | The Devil Face Jug That Almost Came Back\n00:52:07 | Remembering Otto\n00:58:08 | Halloween Plans, Masks & AB the Flag Man\nDo you collect folk art Halloween decorations?
