Thx Guys... I figured the lid was Canadian. The lettering is on the top of the lid. The location on the label is from Vancouver. I am picking it up Sunday! Will post better pics next week.
Yes, jarsnstuff, is right. Very common jar, but a tougher full label to find. Has to do with how these jars were marketed: buy the coffee, re-use the jar for your household.
I did get this jar yesterday. Label says' " Nabob Coffee, Irradiated, Vacuum packed, All - Purpose Grind, Packed For Nabob Foods Products Ltd. by Kelly Douglas & Co. Ltd, Vancouver, Canada. Net Content, 16 ounces. The metal lid and rubber gasket is in excellent condition. It came with a Crown zinc band. It say's ' When Preserving Use Improved Gem Glass Lid and Rubber Band.
Thank's for your input Glen.
Anyone know the approximate year of it ?
I am lucky enough to have an original Nabob one piece lid. The metal insert you have sat under the lid, assuming it is the same as the Blue Ribbon Coffee jar. I you want to let that jar go, I could give it a happy home!
Deenodean, The Nabob (as well as Braid's and Malkin's Best coffees) takes a standard wide mouth lid, so you are correct. I tried to pm you but it says you don't accept pm's. I then tried to send you an email, and supposedly it sent - but I'm not sure if it worked or not. If not, I have an email account under this used id at yahoo.com thanks, Tammy
