Pierre the Chef – fact or fiction

Question:
I have a Pierre the Chef yellow cookie jar that I inherited from my parents (my siblings and I were in the 1940s and 50s). I am not sure it is a Red Wing because the inscription on the bottom of the jar is very difficult to make out (I see several M’s and then the word "painted"). When I look at pictures of this antique cookie jar, I’ve noticed that mine has a thicker mustache. My twin brother told me that our cookie jar is rare because some were made to resemble Adolf Hitler. Fact or fiction? Could ours be a knock-out manufactured by someone other than Red Wing? Thank you for taking the time! Sue
