I'm not sure how many different switch plates actually produced, but with the help of collectors like Jack Canning, the page now shows all the ones I know about.

Jack sent this salmon pink Kitchen Madonna. He purchased six at one time. The paint job looks professional to me.

Hartland Related Literature
If finding old literature related to the Westerns isn't hard enough, finding any literature related to the Religious and Novelty pieces is next to impossible! It is apparent by the information in the Classified Directory of Wisconsin Manufacturers yearly books that Hartland was making Religious statues in 1950, and probably before that. A few clues come from Christmas Catalogs and cake decorating catalogs. To date, the only known dealer documents consist of three pages, listed below. Thanks to Hartland Collectibles, LLC for making these three sheets available to this site.
