I purchased a piece in RedWing this weekend. It is a very heavy bowl with a cast iron band around it with a bracket on one end. Inside the bowl is marked in blue in a circle "Mfr'd by Ideal Salt Feeder Co. Morristown, Minn. Patended in U.S. and Can." Above and below the patent info is a doodle I have seen in a Redwing Collector's book. The clerk at the store seemed to think I had found something very valuable?? Is it actually Red Wing? What was it used for?
