1 gallon bottom marked should jug

Question:
I was wondering if you could help me with the value of a 1 gallon jug with a shelf on the shoulder. The base is impressed with Red Wing wording. I believe it has a dark blue or black oval stencil on the side of the jug that advertises a wine company in Chicago, IL. I saw it in a shop last month so I am still going by memory, but I believe all of the above information is correct and should be enough for you to determine a value range because you have probably seen one before. Even a general range for a stenciled advertising jug with base debossing would help. The item is in near mint condition. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You. Mark

50 gallon crock with lid

Question:
I would like some info on the 50 gallon Redwing crock with lid. The crock has no cracks except some small spiderweb cracks around the drain hole in bottom. There is also an over flow hole at the top of crock. I don’t know if the hole is orginal or not. The Redwing on the crock is almost faded away. The lid has a hump on the rim. It looks like it was done when made. Any info and estimate of value etc. would be appreciated. Bill

5 gallon standard marking clarification

Question:
I have a plain jug with a smaller blue number 5 and nothing else on it. It is quite large and I believe the 5 is for 5 gal and it is the normal stoneware color. Is it a Red wing? Gaylene

Additional info:

I sent in a question – not answered as of yet but I forgot to say that the number 5 is below the rim as if the wing and the rest was left off and I have never seen that before- the 5 is also open as if fancier- by that I mean not a solid 5. Thanks for your help
