Mason's 1858 - Tall HG, base embossed BT&Co 1 - 3/1/2008 6:26:12 PM    jane8851 Posts: 325 Joined: 12/3/2006 From: Upstate NY Status: offline Hi all, I'm planning to list this on eBay but I can't find it in RB9. The closest jar is 1875-7 but that's a quart and the base lacks the "1". This is a taller than usual half gallon, almost 9 1/4" tall, ground lip, base embossed BT & Co 1 as shown in my photo. Any idea what it's worth? It has an unmarked zinc lid that I suspect doesn't really go to this jar as it fits but doesn't screw all the way down to the shoulder. Thanks for any help!

And is this still considered a HG since it's taller than a regular HG? Thanks! (in reply to jane8851) Post #: 5
