Question:
I found this crock in a home I moved into and cannot seem to find much information about it. Can you tell me more about it and what it’s value is? Thanks so much! Angelina

Answer: Angelina, your have a very early Red Wing Zinc glazed 6 gallon crock with birch leaves. It was made between 1895 & 1912 and has the 1st Red Wing oval which is called the ski oval. If the decorations were darker, the value would be higher. The way I see it, value is around $100. Collectors love that ski oval, and if your flash has made the decoration look lighter and it is really darker than what I see, the value could go up by $50 or so. Al Kohlman
