    I bought this at a thrift shop a few days ago. I can't really find any specific info about it. I only paid a few dollars for it. It is 9" high.
    1880s? I'm thinking PA or NY, but I honestly don't know. Any ideas?

    It is very nice..I like it..but to me does not look like it has that much (1880s) age to it...IMHO- I hope the experts come along !

    I'm thinking it is newer as in 1980s or later.
    Maybe @*crs* will have an idea

    Thanks @janettekay and @clutteredcloset49
    I sure would like to know for certain. If it's old, I'm keeping it.
    If it's a repro, I will sell it at my antique mall.

    I agree with Pat on newer. You could send Crocker Farms some pics. Their opinion would be better than mine. ;)

    Any other opinions?
    I want to be sure it's not an antique before I sell it.
    Thanks, everyone!

    You might wait a day or two. Then bump this back up.
    It's the weekend. A lot of people are tired of being cooped up and are out and about.

    Yeah, disappointing! But you guys all nailed it as a newer piece, so thanks to everyone who replied!
    My dad has a large crock collection where he lives in West Virginia, so I will inherit some genuine antique crocks one day.
