Question:

I have a 5 gallon churn with wire handles, very similar to the 4 gallon in the photo below (I don’t have a good all in one photo of mine).  I also include what photos I have of mine.

I have been unable to find a photo and or price on line for an exact match.  I see plenty of 4 gallon or smaller, and a few 5 gallon churns without handles, but not one like mine.

There is no lid however the churn itself is in excellent condition with no cracks.

Can you give me a ball park figure on value?

Thanks

Ron

 

Answer:

Ron, you do not see as many Red Wing churns with the wire
handles as you do without.  However, there are not very many collectors
that I know of who go after the wire handle churns versus the no wire handle
churns and therefore the value is about the same.  Value as I see it in
todays market.   $150 to $200.   Al Kohlman
