Atherholt, Fisher & Co. quart - 6/7/2008 1:15:26 PM    Jim Posts: 2268 Joined: 7/5/2005 From: Lewistown, PA Status: offline Here is my favorite fruit jar. It's a quart ATHERHOLT, FISHER & Co/ PHILADa. Fruit jars are something that I do not have many of, but I wouldn't mind finding a few more early ones. ~Jim Attachment (1) < Message edited by Jim -- 6/7/2008 1:17:25 PM > _____________________________ Preserving our buried history, one pit at a time.

I have some different Mason's 1858s, but this is the first really good early jar I've had. I dug an A. Stone lug lid jar once, but sadly it was smashed to pieces at the bottom of the pit . ~Jim _____________________________ Preserving our buried history, one pit at a time.

I think this jar takes a Kline patent stopper. I hope that is the case, because the Kline stoppers are fairly common. If you can find me one, I would be interested.

RE: Atherholt, Fisher & Co. quart - 6/9/2008 12:02:20 AM    Jim Posts: 2268 Joined: 7/5/2005 From: Lewistown, PA Status: offline Different stopper, but that is a sweet jar. The Klines are a one-piece, all-glass stopper that sealed with a wax ring. They sealed really well, but could be a nightmare to get back out. Some of them have an 1863 patent date on them. They're weird looking, they don't really even look like a jar stopper, but that's what they are. ~Jim _____________________________ Preserving our buried history, one pit at a time.
