It looks like a conveyor belt.....feed from factory goes into silo through it.....don't walk on anything high in there..it's likely rusted through

[/quote] dont intend to,i hate heights[].................that wasnt the building we were in anyway......................as for the tresspassing thing,im pretty sure the city owns it,but if they dont,its my opinion that if the owners dont care enought about it than to let it sit in there and rot,they dont deserve to have a nice piece of history................and its not in the best of neighborhoods so people dont really care[8|][]

That leaf would've had "Midwestern Stoneware Co." in it, I think. It isn't such a loss, those things aren't overly rare. It might've had other stenciling, but I doubt it.

thanx,even if it wasnt rare,i dont have any crocks,and i think that one would have looked very nice[sm=lol.gif]

Great pics and story. Living in the northeast Ohio rustbelt, I've been through many similar buildings, some with permission, some without. I'm sure whoever owns that probably does not care about the sign or anything else in there but probably would not be pleased to find people trespassing due to liability issues, so just keep a low profile.

we do,but we(as most people around here)arent the kind of idiots that sue at the drop of a hat[]

Enjoyed the post. Here's a 2 gallon Western stoneware jug I dug many years ago. Buster
