10 birch leave Minnesota Stoneware Crock

Question:
Hello, I was wondering if you could tell about what time frame this crock was made. Good condition no cracks, no grazing, no chips. Do you have a value? Thank you so much! Bev

 

Answer: Bev, you have an extremely nice marked Minnesota Stoneware 10 gallon Elephant ear crock. It would have been produced between 1895 to 1906 or so. To replace a crock of this perfection, it would cost you around $300. Very nice piece. Al Kohlman
