Question:
I got this harvest jug? about 35 yrs ago in central wisconsin. One handle is missing, otherwise mint condition. A Red Wing collector said this is Red Wing. Its between 15-20 gallons. Salt Glaze, not marked. Turkey droppings. Your opinion? Chuck

 

Answer: Chuck from the looks of where the base of the handle was applied to the jug and the shape of the bung hole, I would say your jug is not Red Wing. Have never seen a build up bung hole which looks like a miniature beehive jug, but it is neat looking. Al Kohlman
