Railroads shipped boxcars full to stores like Woolworth’s and Kresge’s. Louise Bauer came up with the design, patented by Hull Pottery of Crooksville, Ohio, in 1943. From there, the story gets complicated. The specifics of the design change—an open or closed basket, and the number, type and placement of flowers can affect the value. The details of production change as well! Hull manufactured blanks and sent them to Royal China and Novelty Co. in Chicago, a division of Regal China Corporation, for decoration. Royal returned them to Hull for distribution, but also produced a few cookie jars, and many of the smaller pieces. That’s why similar-looking pieces may bear different marks. The decorations on the many pieces varied as much as the pieces themselves. Poppy flowers were favorites, poinsettias, or sprays of several different flower bunches. Gold adorns most of the line, but not in a garish fashion, just a touch here and there. On most pieces, the hair is yellowHull Little Red Riding Hood poppies, daisies, violets, solid thumb & index finger handleEarly Hull Little Red Riding Hood pre-patent (patent applied for) #967 - well stamped *** Weight : 5# 8 oz. *** Measurements : 8 x 7.75 x 13" tall ***
