Question:
I have a white americana vase. It stands about 12 inches high. It has an eagle with spead wings and tip of wings extends above the rest of the vase. It also has a band of stars around the bottom of the vase. Mint condition. I think it could be a commerative piece. Obtained in Rochester, Minnesota. Anxious to find anything out about it.

Answer: Hello, Red Wing did make a vase like you describe. #1156, circa 1942, WWII era, very patriotic themes. There should be some marks on the bottom as well. Fairly rare shape, not seen too often. value is around 100.00 or so. thanks, steve n rose
