18 inch high salt glazed beehive jug

Question:
Enclosed are photos of a single handle salt-glazed beehive jug. It doesn’t have any marks as to who made it. It is 18" high and 11-1/2" diameter of bottom. It has turkey droppings and some discoloration as you can see on the photos. It is in good condition except for a glazed-over chip on the inside of the spout and a small dent on the side. Could you tell me if it is Red Wing and what is the value? Thank you. Dayton

12 gallon Union Stoneware Crock

Question:
I found a large crock in my parents’ basement. It measures 17" in diameter by 17" high. It has a large blue "12" just below the rim, a large red "Red Wing" emblem in the middle and "Union 1 Stoneware" id in an oval near the bottom. I will have to do some heavy duty cleaning before I can take a photo. Can you please tell me more about this piece? Thank you. Chuck
