Question:
We purchased this 3 gallon Red Wing Shoulder jug approx. 15 years ago at a flea market in Princeton, WI for 65.00. It is special in the fact it’s gallon number is on the top part of the jug and not on the front where most are. We were curious what an appropriate price might be if we were to sell it. Thank you in advance for your help with this request. Kindly, Patrick & Tracy Cramer

Tip Toe Follow up feedback and more questions
Question:
Hi, Thank you for this wonderful web site. Research here and at the links provided I have identified a recent Red Wing purchase I made. It is a casual line water jug in Tip-Toe. It has the ice lip and is 14 inches at the spout and approx 6 inch diameter at the widest part. Is this the large water jug? I learned Tip-Toe was introduced in 1955, how many years was it in production? I ask because I love it so much I’m thinking of looking for more pieces, is there much of it out there? Is it popular with collectors? I didn’t see very much Tip-Toe on ebay so I’m concerned it would be hard to find. By the way it is in excellent condition, no chips, cracks or crazing, looks like it was never used, could you give me an estimated value? I hope I paid an appropriate amount but in any case I’m happy it’s mine. Thank you very much for the wonderful site and for your reply. Marianne
