Question:
I just started collecting Red wing crocks last summer. I want to eventually have one of every open crock they made. I can’t find a 1 gallon with a Red wing on it, are they rare? Also, I’m beginning to think they never made a 7, 9, 11, 13, 14, 16, 17 18, 19. I have the rest already. Please let me know if I’m complete as far as 1-20… Thank you. Dave

 

Answer: Dave, yes, one gallon Red Wing crocks are rare. A one gallon crock with a 4 inch wing in mint condition will sell in the range of $400. The 2 inch wing around $200. Red Wing never made a 7, 9, 11, 13, 14, 16, 17 18, or a 19 gallon crocks. After the 20 gallon crock you would need to find a 25, 30, 40, 50 & 60. You would then have a complete set. After that, you need to find all the correct lids for these crocks. This is what makes this collection so much fun and exciting. It is about the hunt. Al Kohlman
