While some clowns listed may appear to be the same they will be different.
The main differences with the clowns other than form, are the sizes and colours, plus, some may have very different basemarks which I will investigate and add for discussion.
Different basemarks may simply reflect an importer using a different Japanese pottery or more likely different basemarks may reflect different importers.
Eventually, when they are all displayed together, I will elliminate size variation of less than ¼" (6 mm) by rounding to the nearest ½" as small variations should be expected from these clown juicers over their long period of production.

I will then list group images showing the differences. Eg.
The measurements
To differentiate the clowns I am listing the following measurements.
Diameter of the collar, the length of the base from the pouring spout to handle, the height of the top, base and complete clown
