[Book] Miller, J. Jefferson. 1974 English Yellow-Glazed Earthenware.
Similar (but perhaps not identical) print portraying Cribb & Molineaux on silver luster yellowware jug: p. 22, col. pl. XV, refers to 1810-11 boxing bouts; design perhaps after Cruikshank or Rowlandson, c. 1815

Cribb and Molineaux figures with history of subject: pp. 178-180, no. 161, possibly from same molds as Winterthur's pair, Staffordshire, 1812-c. 1815; no. 162, Tom Cribb, probably Scotland, c. 1825; no. 163, possibly Tom Cribb, Staffordshire, c. 1820.
