What a crock?!

[shadyops]

Can anyone help me identify and date this crock?

I think it's Robinson-Ransbottom Pottery Company, but the stamp is faded.

I do not think it is RRP !! Most all of those early pots had an impressed mark "RRP&Co,, Roseville Ohio, USA"  Newest had a stamp with it spelled out !! They did use a crown on the outside on some of their pottery !!  I have seen that mark before ,,I think someone a while back posted on it here !!  Let me look !!

There was a discussion  on the USA mark ..... which that piece is marked.

Couldn`t do a site search for that urn shaped mark !! Anyone else maybe

If you put a full picture of the front to it might help me. In my bottle books they have crocks. I could maybe match it up and find out. I'll check a marks book I have to see if its in there too!

I question whether it is a crock. I have many old crocks, and none are like that on the bottom. My books say for crocks smooth base and I haven't seen them signed at the bottom. Maybe later I'll get one down and take a photo to show you. I'm making dinner. If I could really see it I could tell more. I can't tell is that a cartouches on the bottom? I can't see it clear enough.

Try "urn' shaped mark "pottery" should cover it all !! Greenacres is right we need to see it,, not just the bottom also need size !! We may be looking for the wrong thing !!
