2014 stoneware collectible

This is a miniature version of the sewer pipes that were produced in Red Wing from 1891 -1970 by the John H. Rich Sewer Pipe Company, Red Wing Stoneware, and Red Wing Potteries. Small pieces like this were salesmen’s samples. Unlike the original sewer pipes, this one does have a bottom, so it can be used for storing things.  It is impressed with the original logo on the side of the piece
