Hello, I am a small-time collector and recently joined the RWCS. I recently heard of a 50 gal. Wing crock and am talking with the owner. I have not seen it yet, but he tells me it has a "crack" about one third of the way down a side, and "spider" cracks in the bottom. I know nothing regarding size or severity, and he has not mentioned any other damage. I guess I’m interested in knowing what an expert might consider a "ballpark" value for a piece such as this. I know this is pretty vague, but I really have no idea even where to begun thinking in terms of value. I would appreciate any help you could give me. Thanks. -Ray

The plate with handle is called a tidbit tray. It is a Desert Sun dinner plate with a handle that was attached by Red Wing Potteries staff. Tidbit trays were not shown in brochures for dinnerware patterns. But they were pictured in Gift & Novelty brochures. Various sizes of plates and bowls were pieced together into 1, 2, 3 and even 4 tiered tidbit trays. The plates and bowls used were usually surplus or from discontinued patterns. The Desert Sun patten was introduced in 1962. In excellent condition this tidbit tray is worth $10 to $20.
