Question:
Hello, I have what I believe is a Red Wing jug that was given to me by a relative to sell for him. I know nothing about Red Wing, so I wanted to find out as much information as possible to create an accurate listing of the jug. This jug measures about 12" high, and is a little over 9" in diameter on the bottom. There is advertising on the side for Welz Mangler Co, of St. Paul Minn, which was a fine whiskey company. I see no other markings on the jug to verify that it is a Red Wing piece, but I believe that it is. To me, the condition looks wonderful. There is a very small chip in the glaze on the top portion of the jug. There is a handle on the jug, which can’t really be seen in the photo I’m sending, but if you would like additional photos, I would be happy to send them. Any information you could give me; age, value, scarcity, etc., would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
