Question:
Al – Once again, thank you for all your work. I have a collection of jugs I would like you to look at. Could you tell me if any are Red Wing, and a value for each? Thanks! Matt

 

Also, what is the value of a five gallon salt glaze double p rib cage, unsigned?

 

Answer: Matt, your #1 jug is Red Wing and value on it is between $350 & $400. Your #2 jug is East Coast and I have no idea of it’s value. The #3 & #4 look to be from the Western Stoneware Company and again not being Red Wing I just do not know the values of these two pieces. Five gallon double P Rib Cage salt glaze beehives are down in value with the ecomony right now. They are selling between $2000 & $2500 in mint condition. All depends on how well marked. Al Kohlman
