Napcoware Turkey Gravy Pitcher????
« on: March 05, 2012, 12:22:29 pm »
Hi everyone-hoping someone can tell me what this is. Its in with a whole bunch of my Grandmother's stuff, all I remember is she only used it at Thanksgiving for the gravy-and i'd call it a pitcher not a boat-its pretty big! I just can't find it on the internet anywhere! Only markings are a Napcoware sticker and the number 8148 on the bottom of it. So anyone know anything-how old,value or what it is? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Your piece was produced by National Potteries Corporation, otherwise known as Napco,Established in 1938 in Bedford, Ohio. Height of popularity 50s & 60s. Napco used a wide array of marks  paper labels feature various wording, such as: "A Napco Collection," "Napco originals by Giftware," "National Potteries Co., Cleveland, OH, Made in Japan," and "Napcoware, Import Japan."
I would say your piece is a pitcher value about $7.00  But what a wonderful piece full of memories for you!!

This would sell for $10 - 12 in my neck of the woods.
