15 Gallon Red Wing Crock
Question:
My father borrowed me a 15 gallon Red Wing crock to make wine. I really did not think of the value of it other than having sentimental value, until my siblings found out I borrowed it and now would like me to give it to them. I have no plans on selling it, but would like to know what the value is. It has the 6" Red Wing logo and a 2/2 by 1/12 inch oval Red Wing Union Stoneware logo. It Also a a Patent Dec 21 1915 logo. All logos are very clear. It has a very faint hairline crack inside about 4" long. It does not leak. Has the wooden/wire handles. Thanks Cindy

5 gallon butter churn and two bowls
Question:
Hello. I purchased these three items yesterday and was wondering if you could give me some information on value. I paid $135 for the butter churn and it is in good condition except for a very old chip on one of the handles. I paid $30 for the beige bowl and it is in perfect condition and the blue butter crock was $48 and has Johnson Milk Depots on the bottom and just one small chip. I was wondering if Red Wing ever produced the blue butter crocks or who might have? Thank you so much for your expert opinion. Gary
