I have an unusaul ash tray with 2 marking I would like to find out about. Black Redwing "teepee"? Redwing USA 827 and looks like MS 73-74 on the edge. Dan
Answer: Hi Dan
Your ashtray is from 1963. Red Wing closed in 1967, the initials and numbers concern me, that it could have been made somewhere after the factory closed. Some molds were sold, and hobby shops used them. Value is still around 30.00 or so. thanks, steve n rose
