Question:
I was given an incomplete set of Red Wing dinnerware that I would like to sell. I would like to verify – is it the Pink Morning Glory pattern in the Concord series and was the pattern discontinued in 1947? If so, what is the range of the possible collective value of all of the pieces? Any other informtaion you can give me would be appreciated. Pieces: 1 serving platter (some water marks(?) on it and background network of cracks, 1 relish tray (excellent condition), 1 divided relish tray (2 small chips on rim), 1 casserole dish (no lid, faint background network of cracks), 1 small gravy boat or creamer (excellent condition), 1 sugar bowl with lid (excellent condition), 4 large dinner plates (background network of cracks and some water marks), 8 small salad plates (1 excellent condition, 7 with background network of cracks and some water marks), 7 saucers (1 with crack, all with background network of cracks), 8 small bowls (1 greatly discolored [brown] and some chips on rim, 4 more with chips on rim, and 3 with no chips – all 8 with background network of cracks), 8 tea cups (7 excellent condition, 1 with background cracks). These pieces say "Red Wing Pottery Hand Painted" on the bottom. The background cracks are not obvious until you look at them within a couple of feet or even up really close, except for the one small bowl that has a dark, stained, cracked area. Thank you!
