We’ve had this and two others of the same color but different designs kickin’ around our kitchen for decades.  I think two of them were Earl’s mothers and one of them was my grandmothers.  Neither woman was a collector and the pitchers were likely to have been used for their intended function which would have been serving libations.  I tried using the flatbed scanner on the bottom for the makers mark to no avail, it’s a logo undecipherable  to me with the words made in the USA and the number 1333.

    Unless it’s a repro, which I doubt, it looks like a classic 1930s or 40s pitcher. Absolutely beautiful color and in perfect shape. Everything tastes better when it’s poured out of one of these.

    Thanks for the compliments. A special thank you to Michael. With the lead you gave me, I’m having a super terrific time researching hall china from the last century. :0). P.S. My Day of the Dead tile arrived. It’s awesome. I have them bookmarked on my desktop and I plan to treat my self to one tile every payday til they run out of designs. I LOVE Them!
