Question:
I have a zink glazed 20 gallon Red Wing crock with the brown Red Wing Emblem enblazed on the side. The crock is in mint condition with no cracks or chip marks. I have had the crock for approximately 30-32 years. I don’t know the age of the crock. Could one of your experts please provide a rough estimate of it’s value? I also have a 15 gallon zinc glazed crock with a picture of a blue crown emblazoned on the side. I also have the center knob crock cover for it. I’m not sure if the crock and cover were manufactured by Red Wing. The crock and cover are also in mint condition without any cracks or chip marks. I have had this crock for approximately 30+ years. Could one of your experts please give me an estimated value? Thbak you for yor consideration of this request. John
Second Submission of additional information:
I have some additional information on the description of the 20 gallon Red Wing crock which I sent in a previous e-mail a few minutes ago. I consulted your page on the different type of emblems which appeared on the Red Wing crocks and determined that the top horizontal line on this crock begins under the letter"E" in "Red Wing". Given this emblem I assume the crock was manufactured sometime during the 1930s.
Answer: John, I can only give you an value on your Red Wing 20 gallon crock. The 15 gallon Crown crock I would have no value on it. The Red Wing 20 gallon crock in perfect condition has a value around $200. Without additional information on handles, ovals , wing size or photo, I cannot date your crock. Al Kohlman
