The earliest Red Wing catalogs listed this cookie jar as "Pierre the Chef". Later catalogs simply called him "Chef".The Pierre the Chef cookie jar was introduced by Red Wing in 1941, along with his friends Katrina the Dutch girl and Friar Tuck. Price lists from 1942, 1943 and 1944 show them as being available in blue, yellow, and tan colors. An undated brochure, probably from the mid to late 1940s adds green as an available color. These three cookie jars were great sellers for Red Wing. Many thousands of them were made and production continued into the mid 1950s.The oldest jars are stamped "Red Wing Pottery" across a stylized wing in bluish-black ink on the bottom, along with three patent numbers. Jars made a bit later do not include the patent numbers. Eventually (around 1950) the ink stamp was omitted and only "Red Wing USA" appears on the bottom, imparted by the mold that formed the piece.
