Milwaukee - H.C. Schrank

Huge Red Wing 40 gallon crock with a blue stamp that reads "H.C. SCHRANK CO. BOTTLERS' SUPPLIES MILWAUKEE, - - U.S.A." with a large 40. There is a spigot hole at the base. This company made flavoring extracts for the bottling industry so this piece may have been used for this purpose for large soda bottling customers.
