    There were quite a few of these jars reproduce and quite a few different colors but i have seen them at times bring a good bit of money usually by those that are not aware they are repops . Still pretty bottles no matter how you look at it .

    jumbo peanutbutter

    Jumbos are common as already stated . I collected them years ago . If I remember right there are like twelve different slogans on the bottoms of the one pound jars . These usually sell for around eight to ten bucks in my area , but some of the other Jumbos will bring some fairly good prices .

    Sorry I could not get a better picture of this bottle . On the bottom of the bottle is a light ring of lightly jagged glass . It is hard to see but it will darn sure catch your attention if you run your finger over it , found that out the hard way . Its like a partial pontil , like possibly...

Seems the bottom has fell out of just about everything except for the high end items . I believe the older generations who collected so many...

    Bottle I waited thirty five years to own

    When I came home from the service in 1970 , a short time after being home I was asked by a town folk if I would be interested in tearing an old house down in town for the material .
