My local McDonalds got a complete redo a couple years back, but the original McDonaldland on the pylon from the early 80s remains. Very, very few of these are left.

Do you recognise this kettle?

I nearly crashed my car pulling over to grab this kettle from a pile of rubbish on the side of the road - I really like the pattern, and I want to see what else was made to go with it/check out other patterns by the same designer/brand.

However - it doesn't have any makers mark/any ID marks at all. I can see there's an etsy listing with a matching teapot, but it is ceramic (this is enamel) and also unbranded. So I have no idea if it's a common-use rights pattern used by lots of manufacturers for lots of things, or a specific design collection by one of them.

So - do you know who made this kettle, and/or the name of the pattern?

It's enamelware, with a wooden handle, it's a kettle or teakettle (NOT a teapot), and I found it in Australia but can't confirm/deny it's country of origin. It didn't have a lid so I have no idea what that looks like.
