Was wondering if this is a Red Wing 5 gallon jug? Jug is in good shape with a small chip on the bottom. Can you tell me its value and if not a Red Wing who made it? Thanks, Patty T.

Answer:
Patty, your jug is not Red Wing. I have no idea of who the maker could be. The glaze is wrong and the decoration is scratched in. Red Wing scratched in their gallon-age, but not a decoration that I know of. Approximate value would be in the area of $200. Al Kohlman

Question:
Hello, I have a small Red Wing (I think) spongeware bowl that was passed down to me from my grandmother. It measures 5 3/8 inches across from the top outside edge. I was at an antique show several years ago and a dealer was asking $600 for an identical bowl. I asked him why that one was so much more than any other ones he had and he said that the 5 inch bowl is very rare. Is this true? The bottom is about 3 inches across and it has 6 raised "ribs " around the outside. Thank you for any information you can give me as to it’s value. Let me know if you need a picture.

Linda P. It’s in perfect condition

Answer:
Linda, the Red Wing 5 " sponged panel bowl is the rarest of these bowls. If the bowl has dark outstanding sponge of Red and Blue, they can demand $600. The lighter the sponge the less the value. Al Kohlman
