Question:
Hello, could I also get information on these 3 pieces? I haven’t seen the RW feeder before and am wondering if it’s rare? Thanks again! Dave

 

Answer: Dave, your first crock is a 5 gallon crown which was produced in Ohio. Don’t collect these, but do know that there value is quite low. The other 5 gallon is a Red Wing crock which was manufactured between 1936 & 1947. Value today is between $60 & $75. Lastly the chicken water is a Red Wing Ko-Rec Feeder. This is the latest of the three chicken waters produced by Red Wing (1930′s & 40′s). These are not rare and came in two sizes. These Ko-Rec Feeders also had a base. I see that you are missing the base for yours. Without the base, value is between $50 & $70. Values are for perfect pieces. Any damage and you can cut the values in half. Hope this helps. Al Kohlman
