Question:
Hello~ Can anyone tell me about this Red Wing item? It stands almost 5" high. Is marked on the bottom in raised letters RED WING USA and then either 909 or 606. Also hand engraved is the name VIVIAN. I haven’t been able to find any info about it. Year? Value? name? Thank you!!! Kevin
Answer: Kevin, This piece is a 909, garden line, I believe, circa 1965. The pic is pretty small, but I think this is a "hobby shop" piece. Lots of molds were taken from Red Wing after it closed in 1967, and various places glazed and decorated them. Hence the name and odd glaze color. Value is around 20.00 or so. thanks, steve n rose
