RE: What is this Masons Patent - 8/19/2010 10:36:33 AM    joejo20   Posts: 22 Joined: 6/21/2010 Status: offline Thanks for the reply. I am having trouble with the color thing. I have more of these jars that are easily aqua but this one just looks different, like a powder blue or sky blue. Is that the case or is it just another shade of aqua? Also it is missing the th on the end of 30th. is that common? Joe < Message edited by joejo20 -- 8/19/2010 10:37:28 AM > (in reply to coreya) Post #: 10

Best to take picture in natural light with a neutral background. (in reply to RED Matthews) Post #: 12
