Question:
I bought a red wing crock about 30 years ago at a garage sale for $5.00. Color is gray and it is glazed. It has a large number 6 on it (which I assume is the number of gallons it holds). About mid-way down, it has "Ice Water" printed on it in blue . Then it has the large red "wing" under that. It sort of has the shape of a ginger jar. It also has a cork near the bottom for what I assume would be a spigot? I think it must have once had a matching cover but I don’t have that. Just wondering if it has any value? Gabriel

 

Answer: Gabriel, a 6 gallon Red Wing Ice Water such as you described in perfect condition and nice markings has a value in the area of $800. Al Kohlman
