Question:
Hello, Can you help me identify this?? The churn itself has no cracks, chips, stains…..not sure if the cover is original? The cover has no cracks but has a few small chips on the underside….the dasher is intact and in good shape. Thanks for the help, Pat

 

Answer: Pat, you have a Minnesota Stoneware Company salt glazed 6 gallon churn with double rib cage. It was produced between 1870 and 1895 or so. The lid is not the correct lid. In perfect condition the value is around $600 today. Al Kohlman
