    I picked this up for $10 off my local FB marketplace just because I liked it. Now I'm finding it may be worth some money? Google image search turns up a few examples in watery blue, and one in white, and they're priced rather high. :greedy:
    I've emailed Gladding McBean but while I wait I thought someone here might have info to offer.
    And they seem to be referred to as Hollywood Regency? It's confusing as to whether others are using that term as a time period or as the name of a Garden where they've been utilized.
    The only mark is an impressed 02 on the bottom. It measures approximately 20 inches long by 11 inches high by 8 inches wide.

    (THIS one in the same colorway as mine appears to have sold rather cheaply on Etsy, but others are all listed in the hundreds or even $1000+.)

    They all have holes in the bottom. Does that make them garden pottery?

    Yep. And that's where I intend it to go... unless it's actually worth hundreds!

    Still no word from Gladding McBean, but it's only been 24 hours...

    I never heard back from GB.
    Just giving this a bump in case knowledgeable minds are out there!
