Question:
Good Day to you! I am looking for value information on a set of Red Wing dinnerware that has been in my family for 3 generations. According to the website it is the "Tampico Futura of 1955" which fits the family time frame. The bottom of the set all have the number 1106 below the Red Wing emblem.

The following is a list of the items I have in my set: 9 dinner plates, 7 cup saucers & 6 cups, 2 salad plates 7"x6.5", 3 small bowls 5"x4.5", 1 set salt/pepper shakers, gravy boat, divided serving bowl, 3 serving bowls 9"x8", bottom of butter dish, divided appetizer platter, 13"x9" serving platter, 14"x11" serving platter and 1 creamer. We were about to let them go at a garage sale and decided to keep them until we had a general value for them. We are no longer able to store them. Thanks for all your help and wonderful website.
