    Balll RB 234-10 variant?

    Check out http://p067.ezboard.com/bballjarcollectorscommunitycenter Tons of info on Ball jars and it goes along with Red Book 9.

    Balll RB 234-10 variant?

    That is the plan I heard...but... There as a press on now to expand and update the Ball jar section. The book doesn't sound like it is ready to go to the printer yet, so I would put my money on very late this year or early next. Just my guess.

    Balll RB 234-10 variant?

    Red Book 9 does not have room to list all variations of Ball jars. There would literally be thousands of listings. I personally think the Artistic loop deserves special consideration.

    Balll RB 234-10 variant?

    About 2/3 of them do.

    Balll RB 234-10 variant?

    This is an Artistic Loop Ball Mason. I think they are awesome and I collect everyone I find that I can afford. They don't get any special price break in collector's books. Artistic loop jars often have the period after Mason but not always.

    Crown Mason lid

    I bought a jar the other day that had this lid on it. The zinc lid is in good condition and the glass liner is unbroken and well embossed. If anyone out there needs a matching lid for their Crown Mason RB# 703 let me know.

    Drey pat'd 1920 Improved Ever Seal pint

    I wonder why Schram used the incorrect patent date on the jar? The 1920 patent is the the same as one of the 1910 Ball experimental dimples. It would be interesting to know the communication between Ball and Schram over the 1920 patent and the use of "Perfect Mason" on the Drey jars.

    Drey pat'd 1920 Improved Ever Seal pint

    I know the Drey jars aren't high dollar jars and not all that collectable but I have an odd one. It is an unlisted RB 834 pint with 1/2 bosses and no neck bead. To top it off it is an unlisted color, light green with amber swirls. I think the neck configuration is the same as RB 300 variation...

    Jar needs tumbleing

    The quart Mason is honey amber with a hint of green, not quite a citron.

    Jar needs tumbleing

    I have a beautiful jar. I paid $15 for it but it is sick. Tried all the cleaning methods I can think of and it still is hazy inside. Last resort is to have it tumbled. It is expensive but on a jar possibly worth $100-200 so it could be worth the cost. Is there anyone in the Tulsa, Oklahoma area...

    Looking for a Tulsa, Oklahoma tumbler

    Is there anyone in the Tulsa, Oklahoma area that does tumbling? I have some jars I am interested in having done but really rather not have to ship them half way across the USA to have them done. Larry

    MICHIGAN MASON

    This pint bead seal MICHIGAN MASON is nicely whittled and full of tiny seed bubbles. Anyone know anything about the Michigan Glass Company that manufactured this jar? And what is it worth? Larry

    Citron fruit jar

    The difference between the first photo I posted of my MASON quart and the second is like night and day, literally. The flash will cause your photos to lie about the true color of glass. It was difficult to get enough sun light to show the jar's true color and not totally wash it out in bright...
