Question:
I have a blue & white pitcher marked Red Wing Stoneware Co. Red Wing, Minn. in a circle on the bottom with blue wing in center. The commerative pitcher says "Hometown Family Christmas Red Wing, MN 1999 " in blue script. It is about 7 1/2 inches tall in Mint condition. I also have a cup with the same bottom mark that has an app. 2 inch red wing on the side. There is a "RED WING SHOES" marking imprinted over the Red Wing Emblem- but parts are hard to read as the letters are clear and some are outside the Red Wing Emblem and hard to read! The cup has a blue band at the top. It has a hairline crack on the side opposite the red wing emblem. Just curious to know app. values. Can send pictures if needed. THANKS so much. Linda B.

Answer:
Linda, Your blue & white pitcher and your cup are reproductions most likely manufactured by the new Red Wing Stoneware Company. Because I do not deal in or collect reproductions, I would not be able to give you a value on the pitcher or cup. Not knowing what they sold for new, leaves me at a lost. Sorry I could not be of any help. Al Kohlman
