Long Description
I have a ANTIQUE RANSBOTTOM BROTHERS CROWN 12 gallon crock with handles. It has some crazing which for it's age I understand is normal. It has a 1/2 inch shallow chip on the internal surface of the lip and a few superficial hairline cracks only visible from the inside. There is an indentation (manufactured) on the bottom with a hairline crack leading from it. Other than that the finish is in good condition. We are settling my parents estate and I need to know the value of this crock. Can you help
History
I don't know much history about this item. My mother probably found it about 20 or so years ago at a yard sale or auction. It has been in her attic for a long time.
