Question:
I have a cookie jar with Red Wing USA on the bottom. It also has the words Patent and three rows of numbers stamped under that. The bottom number appears to be 31383.

The cookie jar is a blue friar holding a Bible, one finger pointing and the words Thou Shalt Not Steal on a banner across the front of his robe. It is 7 inches wide, 10 inches high and in excellent condition with some crazing but no chips. The color is not faded and it has a shiney glaze.

Can you tell me how old it is and an approximate value?
