Jumbo peanut butter jar

Someone posted that they found one of these, but didn't show a pic. Heres mine. On the back its embossed " PACKED BY FRANK TEA & SPICE CO. CINCINNATI, OHIO". On the bottom it has the patent date of June 24, 1930. Its a neat little jar, but my camera doesn't do it justice.

First post (hope this works)

I just found this site and got registered today. I've been digging bottles since last spring. Here is a pic of the first good bottle I found. Its a Hayner whiskey from Troy, Ohio. It has a patent date on the bottom of Nov. 30 1897. If this post works, I'll have plenty more to show Y'all. Thanks...
