Blue and whte cherry band ptcher with Iowa advertising

Question:
Al, I have an opportunity to purchase a blue/white Cherryband pitcher with advertising. It advertises an Iowa Co. selling general merchandise. I’ve learned to pass up items that I’m not familiar with, but I think this piece is authentic. I don’t have a photo yet. Can you tell me how popular these are with collectors in a soft market? Looks like a nice piece but how much are they really worth in current prices? Or any general info on Cherryband? Thanks.

Crescent Creameries lid

Question:
I dug a piece of stoneware at Red Wing just before the summertime time that i do not know anything about. it is a disk measuring about 5 inches across and has big bold letters on it that read: Crescent Creameries, Trade Mark with a moon and star.
