    Zinc Lid Question

    Unusual jar auction

    Came across this ebay auction tonight ( item # 250433501095). Very unusual looking Mason's "Cross" jar. The thing looks huge. A smooth lip bead seal is listed in RB10 for a dk.green pint, in the reproduction section, but no listing for this jar. Is this another new reproduction jar being produced??
