Question:
This was my great grandmothers jug. It appears to be in excellent condition, no sign of chips or cracks. It has a number 5 on it, has the red wing symbol and says "Red Wing Union Stoneware Co Red Wing, Minn." If you’d like to see more images from different angles, let me know where to send more pictures. Josh

 

Answer: Josh, I do not need to see any additional photos. Your Red Wing 5 gallon shoulder jug was produced between 1917 & 1930. The value on your jug as I see it here is between $50 & $65. Al Kohlman
