Long before bottled water came in plastic, families relied on heavy glass 5-gallon jugs like this one. Delivery drivers would collect the empties and replace them with freshly filled bottles, and the same jugs were reused for years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI purchased this jug directly from a gentleman now in his 80s. He told me he helped his father deliver water and ice to customers as a young boy and kept these jugs throughout his life because they reminded him of those days. This was one of the last examples he still owned.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncluded is a vintage 5-gallon glass water jug together with the original rustic wooden crate. Whether you’re a collector, history enthusiast, decorator, or simply appreciate pieces with a story, this is a wonderful conversation piece from a bygone era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe glass is clean, the crate has great character, and together they make a striking display for a farmhouse, cabin, lake house, Airbnb, office, shop, or covered patio.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Vintage 5-gallon glass water jug\u003cbr\u003e• Rustic wooden crate included\u003cbr\u003e• Genuine Dallas-area history and provenance\u003cbr\u003e• Great display piece with a story to tell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePickup in McKinney.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf the ad is up, it’s available.
