Very Crude common jars wanted. - 8/20/2011 12:25:22 PM    georgeoj Posts: 715 Joined: 6/30/2007 From: Jonesville, Michigan Status: offline Valued features: Swirls, whittle, pot stones, bubbles, globs, dirt (in the glass), crackle, orange peel, distortions in shape, crooked applied tops and any other in the making flaws. I will pay a strong premium for common jars with great crudity. Some examples of the things that I am looking for are in the picture. I prefer undamaged jars but the greater the crudity, the more tolerant I am of minor damage. George Attachment (1) Post #: 1

RE: Very Crude common jars wanted. - 8/21/2011 2:54:34 PM    Ohio Rob Posts: 244 Joined: 11/15/2009 From: Massillon, O Status: offline George,         Looked through my jars and found this crude one.  I think it is a Hartell's or a Hartell & Letchworth.  It is very thin glass, swirled and stained, with what looks like a small insect? (brown spot near shoulder) embedded in the glass. It has a lugged ground top with a small chip on the ground rim.  Let me know if you are interested.  Thanks, Rob Attachment (1) < Message edited by Ohio Rob -- 8/21/2011 2:57:16 PM > _____________________________ 35 years digging in Ohio.

Status: offline Hey George, if your not in to big of a hurry, i have got alot of common 1858s that have some form of crudeness to them, i just have to find the time to dig them out. I have a 1858 marion 1/2 gal. with a monkey swing towards the top of jar. That one is easy to find, will get pics. posted. Most of the time it was the only reason i kept them was of the crudeness of the glass, just hard to display everything. Warren (in reply to georgeoj) Post #: 4

I do not have a jar with a monkey/bird swing. I can wait as long as it takes for you to dig out the other crude jars that you might want to part with. Thanks!

Here is another example of what I am looking for. I just got this one in the mail. The swirls are on the OUTSIDE of this one.

RE: Very Crude common jars wanted. - 9/2/2011 1:24:06 PM    georgeoj Posts: 715 Joined: 6/30/2007 From: Jonesville, Michigan Status: offline Rob, The jar got here today. The light whittle was a pleasant surprise. I will give the jar a polish as soon as I can get some cleaning equipment set up (probably this winter). The jar will find a good home in my crude jar collection whether or not I ever find a lid to fit. Thank you! George (in reply to Ohio Rob) Post #: 7

RE: Very Crude common jars wanted. - 9/7/2011 3:51:58 AM    junkyard jack   Posts: 318 Joined: 3/23/2009 Status: offline I'll have to dig through the pints & quarts I still have left. I am only collecting 1/2 gallon sized jars now. I know I have a super-crude Mason's CFJCo. Patent Nov.30th 1858 pint around here somewhere. If I can remember how to post pics on here I will get some posted. Beautiful little jar. Probably the crudest one I've ever seen. Had it for years now. I'll get looking for it.

My crude collection is sadly lacking in pints and I am very much on the search for some good examples. My only crude pint is a midget. Here is a picture of it.

RE: Very Crude common jars wanted. - 9/29/2011 2:10:44 AM    junkyard jack   Posts: 318 Joined: 3/23/2009 Status: offline I tell ya what: Send me your mailing address & I'll send the pint CFJ Co. jar to you as a gift. I think it will be a perfect fit in your crude jar group. It's kind of out of place among my jars now that I only collect 1/2 gallon size jars. Another little bonus with this CFJ Co. pint jar is that it is not the usual aqua, but a rather nice lt.green color. (in reply to georgeoj) Post #: 11

Your offer is very kind and much appreciated. I have sent a G-mail with the info. One of the reasons that I chose jar/bottle collecting as a hobby was the fact that we have some of the best people to be found as our fellow collectors. George (in reply to junkyard jack) Post #: 12

RE: Very Crude common jars wanted. - 10/3/2011 12:26:31 PM    georgeoj Posts: 715 Joined: 6/30/2007 From: Jonesville, Michigan Status: offline Thank you Warren. I am looking forward to seeing that monkey swing jar. Here is another example of the type of jar that I am looking for. I have had this one for some time. Note the small chip on the lip. Normally I do not want a wax sealer with a damaged lip. In this case, the crudity overwhelms the minor damage. Attachment (1) (in reply to jarhunter) Post #: 17

RE: Very Crude common jars wanted. - 10/7/2011 6:14:01 PM    georgeoj Posts: 715 Joined: 6/30/2007 From: Jonesville, Michigan Status: offline Thanks Gary. I have been watching that one. Normally I would not be interested in a jar that has only whittle and no other crudity but that one is extreme enough that I would like to have it. George (in reply to Baydog51) Post #: 19
