Question:
Hi There, I found a Red Wing cooler in the trash! It is brown with a green lid and a spigot. It is marked Red Wing with USA underneath. It’s about a foot high and 30 inches around at the widest part. I think it is "Village Green"? It is in beautiful shape, with no chips, cracks, or crazing. I don’t have a picture, so sorry, but do you know what it is and what it’s worth? I was so excited when I picked it up off the curb and saw the Red Wing mark! Your help is greatly appreciated, thanks so much.

Answer: Your description certainly fits a Village Green water cooler. You have nice trash in your neighborhood. The value for a complete Village Green water cooler with cover and spigot would be $250 to $400, assuming all pieces are in excellent condition. Nice find!
