Item 11265
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this fantastic 6 Gallon Stoneware Crock from the Midwest.  
 
Dating to the late 19th century, this beauty features a "6" Capacity Number Encircled with an Array of Mounted Circular and Diamond Shapes, and an Eagle Holding Three Arrows and a Banner in its Talons.  The Banner Reads, "E. Pluribus Unum" ("Out of many, one"), the motto of the United States.   Many of these are weakly stencilled, but this one has a very crisp stencil.  Measures 14" tall and 12" wide across the top.  
 
Very Good Condition.  Two nearly invisible short hairlines from the rim in the back (2 1/2", 3") (closeup), some chipping under the right handle, and some light scattered staining.  No rim or base chips, cracks, or restoration.
