Dennis West Story Funnel Pie Bird Vent * Santa Claus and Robin Hood * ENGLAND

Description

Up for auction is this Collectible Pie Bird
Story Funnel ~ Santa & Robin Hood
made in England by Dennis West
Dennis West made nearly 30 of these, what I like to call - Story Funnels.  The story is not painted...Mr. West applied a lithograph to the funnel – please view all photos to assess the application.
This funnel tells the story of Santa Claus and his reindeer getting robbed by Robin Hood while Friar Tuck is standing by holding a pie.
It measures 3 ½” tall and is marked ENGLAND and DW.   This pie funnel was purchased direct from Mr. West.   No chips or cracks; there is all over crazing – the glaze is rough in some areas.
You can find other Dennis West Story Funnels
pictured in Linda Fields book, "Four & Twenty Blackbirds" volume 1
, pages 158 & 159.  Very Collectible! Thanks for stopping by, and GOOD LUCK Bidding.
