The first one is a quart Opalised Ball 3-l.
The second is RB#1955 the IGCo midget.
The third is a cross reverse midget that is very whittled and has a thin amber streak right across the middle of the embossing. Both midgets have outstanding lids.

Very nice jars. I really like the IG Co. midget. I got a midget in the mail the other day, also. It was a 1787-5 with letters that really leaned to the left. Only problem was, when I opened the box, the jar was in a hundred pieces.

Congratulations on the IGCo midget.  I think I was the underbidder on that one.  I already have one from the same mold, but I couldn't resist sticking in a bid when I saw it listed on Ebay as a regular CFJCo.

Thanks Jim,
This is the second time that I have managed to buy one of these IGCo midgets when the seller thought that it was a CFJCo instead. The first was about 40 years ago and it came in the same deal as the ruby red ball ideal that I told you about at Muncie last year.
