QUONC YUEN SING & CO. Jar - 6/28/2007 3:10:36 AM    L C   Posts: 4264 Joined: 3/17/2007 From: Ohio Status: offline     Hello Folks, I have had this jar for a good many years, and this is the only one of these jars I have seen. Do any of you have one of these jars, and if so, can you tell me anything about it ? I tried several times to get the embossing to be legible to see, but with little success as you can see being it is so light. I would say it is a pint jar as for size, looks like a Ball Jar to me, but not marked so. DIAMOND-OWEN-ILLINOIS GLASS CO, Trade Mark is embossed on the bottom of the jar along with the number 21 at the left of it, and the number 7 embossed at the right of it.. There is a number 4 embossed to the right and left of center at the outside edge. It has what looks to be Chinese Writing on the side of the jar embossed very lightly. Also embossed horizontally is what looks to be - QUONG YUEN SING & CO. SAN FRANCISCO, U.S.A. BEAN CAKES NET 12 OZ. Would this jar be considered a fruit Jar, or something else, and who made it?

The jar containd bean cakes which are a Chinese cake with a sweet red bean paste filling. It is made was with azuki beans. They were balls of dough with the red bean paste filling in them and then they were steamed. They mostly use soya beans now. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ http://www.bornagainamerican.org (in reply to L C) Post #: 8
