J.W. KUHLMANN 2 GALLON RED WING CROCK

Question:

Found this crock while cleaning out my Grandma’s basement .Wondering if you could give me an idea on age of crock and value .Only damage I could  find is pictured.

Thanks ,Ron

Answer:

Ron, your Minnesota Stoneware Company Kuhlmann advertising crock was produced somewhere between 1900 & 1906.  You do not see many of the Kuhlmann advertising crocks with a bottom signature.   It is a very nice piece, but the chips in the base will reduce it’s value.  Value as I see it.  $1000 ot $1200 to the right collector.   Al Kohlman
