Question:
hi! I just received a bunch of jugs (some are all brown and some are half brown and half crock colored) and a couple of bean pots, teapot and a pitcher from my mother. she says that they are all Red Wing but some of them are not marked at all and other ones that don’t have an obvious stamp on them have a maple leaf on the bottom and one has a star on the bottom. Are these Red Wing as well? I also have a mini jug that says Potter’s Excursion, June 11th, 1915, Red Wing to St. Paul with a black ink circular stamp on the bottom that says "falconer stoneware Red Wing" is this old or a re issue? I have a ton of pictures but didn’t want to overwhelm you with them unless you think that you need to see any of them. Thanks for your time. susie

5 gallon, Red Wing Potteries, Brown Top Jug
Question:
we recently acquired an atypical five-gallom brown top, zinc-glazed shoulder jug. in size and style, it is similar to our other five gallon shoulder jug. however, it is different in that: 1) there is no wing on the jug; 2) the number "5" on the jug is not the typical red wing stamped five but rather a much smaller one-half inch tall number; and 3) the oval reads "red wing potteries, inc. red wing, minn". we have not seen a jug like this; can you shed some information on this find?
