1940s Donald Duck Pink Pottery Baby Feeding Dish by Hankscraft

1940s Donald Duck Pink Pottery Baby Feeding Dish by Hankscraft

This charming deep divided childs feeding dish was made for Hankscraft, a company that specialized in baby or juvenile items and small electric appliances. It's pink and in the shape of Donald Duck. Donald's head pulls off so you can fill the bowl with hot water to keep baby's food warm. It measures 8-1/2" by 6-1/2" by about 2" deep (not including the head stopper).

Hankscraft contracted with several American pottery firms from the 1920s to 1940s to make their ceramic items - they did not produce them in-house. Red Wing Potteries was one of them, but this dish is likely not by Redwing due to the lack of a certain mark style used only by them (though the dish is identical other than the bottom to the Red Wing versions).

The cork lining around the stopper opening has some minor wear but is mostly intact. There are no chips, scratches, crazing, or other damage.
