Question:

I have a Union Crock that belonged to my Grandmother (lived in Gibbon MN). I’m trying to get some information on the age and it’s value (it has a chip in the top edge, shown in the photo). I believe she used this for making pickles.

Thanks

Mike

Answer:

Mike, your grandmother has a Minnesota Stoneware Company 5 gallon birch leaf butter churn that was produced between 1906 & 1909. With the small chip on the rim the value is between $150 & $175. Al Kohlman
