    Milk Bowl

    Very nice bowl! Great wear on the bottom and looks totally legit. The sunburst and I am assuming Lyon's powder are great as well. Have you ever seen a Lyon's powder bottle without the embossing? The reason I ask is, I have always liked the form and colors Lyon's are offered in. I collect open...

    What color is this?

    It is an interesting blue and one of my favorites in my collection. I have often wondered where my cylinder was blown and some have speculated that it was a Baltimore made piece. Some have also said it could be a New York piece. Baltimore produced some of the coolest colors out there and I love...

    Thought you could use it as a color comparison.

    Need help with color an RB#

    Let us know what details you get about it. I am curious as to whether you are keeping it or are you going to sell it? I no longer collect jars I would just like to know if I may see it in an upcoming sale!

    Need help with color an RB#

    I will be at Baltimore as well! I hope you have a safe trip and find some great bottles or jars. I collect open pontiled utility bottles and have a serious addiction to snuff jars in various sizes and colors. Last year there were tons of killer snuffs to be had and I am hoping it will be the...

    Need help with color an RB#

    Contact Greg Spurgeon he will give you an auction estimate on it. Norman Heckler also sells fruit jars and has sold items for me in the past. He sold a free blown mug for me in October and all I did was send him pictures of it. He will tell you what he thinks it will bring and you will not be...

    Need help with color an RB#

    What is the price for the half gallon light olive with amber swirls? I would also look at some of Greg Spurgeon's past auctions, this is what I do most of the time because you can see what current prices are. I do not have my copy of Redbook in hand so I just have to take your word for it. If...

    You can pick up many different colors in this jar. I would say that the price you would look for would be under light olive green with amber swirls. The richer or darker the colors get, the higher the price will get. I am not trying to take anything away from your jar, but this is a listed jar.

    Would you spend this kind of money

    I guess sometimes all that matters is are you in or are you out!

    Mason jar for $2,000+

    I hate to see that Baltimore flask leave the country! The seller is a great guy though and deserves all the good fortune.

    Very nice jar! One thing that Redbook talks about Mason's patent 1858 jars is the color intensity and hues which can make prices vary. Sometimes pricing these jars can be very tough but the color of yours is very nice and not your average everyday color. Nice find and thank you for sharing!

    Mason jar for $2,000+

    I know this gentleman and have sold him bottles before. He is a member here and a honest man. He was shocked at what his jar brought. He is actually getting ready to go overseas because he is a military man. Auctions are weird like this sometimes and it only takes two. I have heard that some of...

    Pepsi bottle

    Nice bottle! The J reminds me off the Jessup Pepsi bottles found from Charlottesville VA. I wonder if they had a hand in the Staunton bottle.
