Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this wonderful 1 Gallon Stoneware Jug made and stamped by "E. & L. P. Norton & Co., Bennington, VT ."
 
This is the mark of Edward Norton and Luman Preston Norton, the son of Julius Norton, who worked together in the family pottery from 1861-1881 (For more on this pottery, see William Ketchum, Jr., American Stoneware, pp. 43-44).
