Hello Everyone,

I recently found alot of jars in the basement of this house I bought, lots are wrapped in bubble wrap and paper. I am looking to figure out what they are worth and sell them . So thought I would post here.

looks to be about 50 or so. They just didnt look like junk the way they are wrapped.

I am using a friends email next door, I dont have internet to the house yet.

I think your first jar would be a RB-234.. I AM HAVING HARD TIME GETTING THE RIGHT COLOR.. Is there amber mixed in with the olive?

The rippled one says The Ball Jar Masons Patent. The first one is greenish with yellow or amber swirls. There are about 13 different specials so far and alot of purple jars. There does'nt look to be very many blue jars all those are over on a shelf . These boxes say not for canning fragile

The one with the amber swirl if it is what I mentioned before it's value is any where between 75-250.00 according to redbook #9
