I was surprised to see this post, it is really frowned on in England now and schools are banned from reading stories and shops are banned from selling anything with this theme on it.
For many years the company Robertson & Co made Marmalade and their trademark was a Gollywog, not any longer, it is really frowned upon.
I subscribe to the Australian Quilting Magazine and when I opened and found a quilt with that theme I was, to be quite honest, quite shocked as I know it can really offend.
