Question:
Is this a common advertising? The town is in Nebraska. It is on a recent red wing bell style chicken fount I purchased. Is there any list of the advertising currently known on chicken Founts? Glenn

Answer: Glen, there is a Red Wing Potteries Ledger that has all the advertising stoneware the Red Wing Stoneware produced and their numbers from 1892 to 1914. A copy of this ledger is for sale for around $30 through the Red Wing Foundation. There should be some information on this web site to purchase this ledger if your are interested in it. The ledger is quite large and is about an inch thick. All the notes in the ledger is hand written with no index. Therefore it takes quite a bit of time to search for a piece of advertising to see when it was made and how many of produced. The advertising on your Red Wing poultry fountain is not very common, so my guess is a low number of this advertising was produced. Al Kohlman
