Bakeware (Oomph) salad bowl

Question:
I have a bowl and need to know the age, value, etc, if anyone could help. It says on the bottom, RED WING with the line of the R going to the right under the red wing and had a curleeque curling bsack to the left under the line. Under that it has USA. that is all. The bowl is large, 11 1/2" across, 3 1/4" deep, the opening is about 9 1/4.the sides flair out to the 11 1/2" then back to the opening of the 9 1/4. The bottom outside is brown up to the widest part of the flair and then an unusual green, almost teal from there up to the top and down inside the entire bowl.Maybe it is a knock off to the REDWING? Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.I don’t have any way to get a picture on the site.

question from: kauffmanliz@yahoo.com

Question:
Hi,
I posted a question on Saturday 7/25 but can’t find the answer. I’m sure I’m just missing it. It was about a 25 gallon Red Wing Crock in good condition with the wooden top (broken in half)It has the Union Stoneware oval under the picture. I’m curious as to what the price is and don’t know if you’ve posted my answer and I’m just not finding it, or if you’re that busy. If you’re that busy please let me know and I’ll keep checking. Or, are you maybe waiting for a picture?
Thanks for your time
