The #160 Brushed Ware vase is shown on an advertising poster and Price list dated August, 1931. It was available in 18 and 24 inch sizes and in dark green or light green colors; the 24 inch size was also axailable in bronze-tan. They were priced at $60 and $36 per dozen, respectively, at wholesale. The poster is reproduced on pgs 166-167 of Red Wing Potters & Their Wares. Yours is unusual in the inclusion of a date. Large brushed ware pieces draw a special following and this is not a commonly seen variety, yours has even higher appeal.
