Rogers Golden Syrup Perfect Seal

[CanadianBottles]

Does anyone know anything about this jar? I don't have a red book so no idea if it's listed or not. Picked it up at a garage sale in Ottawa last year, and even though it's from BC I never saw one in all my time living out there. I didn't think there were any fruit jars from BC other than the Coronet jars. Not sure I've ever seen any other Perfect Seal jars branded with a product at all come to think of it.

I see jars all the time at yard sales but never anything like that one , don't know anything about it though

Yeah I've never seen anything like this at any other garage sale! It was among a bunch of other common fruit jars. It cost me $5, which is a lot more than I'd typically expect a garage sale fruit jar to cost, but I was pretty happy with the price for this one.

Redbook No. 2508 = valued at $125 - $150. I've never seen one either, great find!

Terrific garage sale pick up. Great looking scarce product jar. Jars with lots of embossing have always been a favorite of mine.

Super find and I would have snagged it up in a second!

Wow that's great news, thanks so much! I don't plan on selling it but glad to know it's something scarce and desirable. I had a feeling this wasn't going to be a very common one.

Great score! Just all that cool embossing is worth the five bucks in itself.

I grew up on Rogers Golden Syrup. It is still sold in Canada. Nothing like peanut butter and Rogers on Shredded Wheat biscuits and nice cold milk for breakfast. Still a family Favorite. All of my life it came in a Tin Can and now plastic of course. I have never seen a bottle/jar like that. Trade you Soda/beer bottles from California and Indiana for it. Or glass insulators if of interest.

I appreciate the offer, but unfortunately I don't collect US bottles or insulators. I do collect BC bottles, so I think this one is going to stay in the collection for the time being since I'm not likely to come across another!
