1/2 Pint Ball Ideal -Photos Added - 6/24/2008 9:35:10 AM    towhead Posts: 858 Joined: 12/31/2004 Status: offline Acquired a clear 1/2 pint Ball Ideal, with the underline L.  The date, July 14, 1908 is on the reverse heel area, the bottom has a number 7 and the neck area has a backwards 1.  It has the wire and lid. When I've looked at the ones on EB, none mention the 1908, or the underline L and, on most, the Ball Ideal is off center (on mine it is centered).  Can you tell me if this one is less common or any info would be great.  Thanks!       2 more pics below....
