The "pulled handle" on your churn is usually associated with Southern pottery traditions, from the Carolinas to Tennessee and further south. There was and remains a strong heritage of pottery activity in this sector, but not much has been published about it. I'm sorry, but I don't have knowldge of the emblem on your churn. If it were stamped more clearly you could read it and therewould be no mystery. So, now your challenge is to find a better signed example. Good luck.
