It is old....between 1896 and 1916...they were produced....very common oder jar. The color variations are pretty big...but the BALLL MASON (in my opionion) were the most beautiful of the jars that were made in amber....very very nice... Is there anything else embossed on the back of ther jar, or on the base? Nice find,,,,hope you uncover a rare one......oh yes,,,you jar there....probably $12 - $17.

The only other embossing was XIII on the base of the jar. _____________________________ Ryan MacLeay Looking for 'Vehicles in the Bush' pictures. http://www.antique-bottles.net/forum/Old-Truck/m-476657/tm.htm Also looking for Abandoned House pictures. http://www.antique-bottles.net/forum/Abandoned-House/m-495368/tm.htm (in reply to dygger60) Post #: 3
