Missy1--- You can never beat Free. In 1941 Charles Murphy designed 3 cookie jars for Red Wing and these were the best selling Cookie jars that Red Wing would ever produce. The three were The Baker, that was in the Red Wing cataloge untill 1956, Katrina the Dutch Girl that Red Wing produced over 200,000 of, and the Monk that fell somewhere in between. These jars are selling now from $125 to $175 depending on the color. Those numbers are the Patent numbers of all three jars. For some reason a lot of the jars had all three numbers on them.
