Question:
Was wondering if you can tell me how much this Red Wing Union Stoneware Company 2 Gallon Water Cooler is worth and how old it is. It has a small chip on the lid that feels like it is glazed over, also on the back it looks like there is a small stain. Original handles with no rust, original spigot looks like it might be missing a rubber top where you push it in to get water. Has a 2 on the lid and some yellowing around 1/2 of the top. Overall I think it is in really good shape. I am able to forward more pictures to you if needed. Thank you so much for any help, we really appreciate it. Deann

Answer: Deann, your Red Wing water cooler was produced between 1936 & 1947. If that chip on the lid is glazed over and the rest of the cooler is in perfect condition, then the value today is around $1200 complete with lid, cooler & spigot. Al Kohlman
