Question:

I recently purchased this small cherry band pitcher at a local auction and am 100% sure
that it is a red wing, but have not been able to find out more about it. It is in
very good condition, with only a little separation in the glaze between the pitcher and upper handle. It stands 6 1/4″ tall and is 4 1/4″ wide at the base. When was it made and what is its value? Any information you could provide would be appreciated.

Thanks, Julie

Answer:

Julie, the first Red Wing Cherry Band pitcher was advertised in a 1914 catalog.   They were quite a popular item and were produced for many years.   Value on your 6″ cherry band pitcher today is between $150 & $200.   Al Kohlman
