Question:
I have a 5-gallon Union Stoneware jug that I am interested in finding the value. The jug does not have a lip, it is smooth all the way to a corked, original cork, top. It has two blue maple leaves and the Union Stoneware emblem with Red Wing, MN all in blue lettering. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks. Barb
Answer: Barb, it sounds like you have a Minnesota Stoneware Company Birch-leaf 5 gallon beehive jug. Depending on the markings and condition the value could be all over the place. In mint condition any where from $350 to $450. Any damage and the value will go down quite a bit. Al Kohlman
