Old creamer with "A and Elephant Head on bottom

Description

This creamer looks like hobnail, because it has the round bubbles sticking out.  I found it once online years ago, I believe it was from the 5o's, I have tried to find something like it , but with no avail.  There are not chips or cracks on it, but it does have normal aging.   I would like to know if it has any real value, who made it, and what year it was made in.

Re: Old creamer with "A and Elephant Head on bottom

Not much in the way of value, it was made by Tashiro Shoten Ltd. The company seems to have shut down about 1954. It could predate World war two, but not by much.
