Vintage Mexican Casserole, Decorated Red Clay, Utility Ware #1

Peos Priced Item;   This old casserole measures 3" deep, 15 1/2" long by 7 1/2".  From the 1960's.  If you compare the modern version of these classic utility cooking vessels from Tlaquepaque you will see they have cut corners on decoration and the thickness of the clay body, which does a better job distributing the heat and thus an even cook.  A great old piece to use or decorate with.  It would be used for rice dishes and other casseroles.
