Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this wonderful 1 Gallon Stoneware Jar made by "T. F. Reppert, Successor to Jas. Hamilton & Co., Greensboro, Pa." 
 
Thomas Reppert made pottery solo in Greensboro, Pennsylvania from 1884-1890 (Phil Shaltenbrand, Big Ware Turners, pp. 157-159).  
 
This beauty features a Top and Bottom Broad Cobalt Stripe that frame the Company Advertising Surrounding Patriotic Shield with Reppert's Predessor's Advertising Inside.  Reppert succeeded James Hamilton who was a very successful potter and, as the pottery industry was waning, was working to draw some clout from Hamilton to keep going.
