    My find

    I like your jars. I concur with the age & seal info others have mentioned here. I've only been collecting fruit jars a little while, but there's a decent amount of info on the net. I like collecting them in various shades of aqua, especially the deeper shades.

    One of the nicest inks I've ever seen

    I don't know if it's new or old, but I like the color. It's beautiful. Since I also collect fountain pens, this one really caught my eye.

    Yes; I definitely plan to get me a Red Book as soon as possible. I'm not obsessed with their value; however, I don't want to pay too much for the jars I buy. I've got a few already, with a few more coming. I'm going pretty slow and not buying too many till I have a better idea what I'm doing...

    Klaatu, thanks for all the info! I love learning about these jars, especially the Midgets. You've given me some good clues to work with.

    Thanks for your comments. Yes, the midgets are just so cute, I can't resist them. Currently I'm looking for unusual midgets that look authentic, with the ground glass rims and so forth. I also like to look for pint jars with different maker's labels. It is definitely an addictive hobby!

    1890's E.R.Durkee Challenge Celery Salt (unopened).

    I've got a Bloody Mary right here that could use a little celery salt....

    Thanks, Coreya, and to Shotdwn as well. Since I'm so new to collecting jars and bottles, I'm just soaking it all in right now. As soon as I'm able, I'll be buying that Red Book. I also collect fountain pens, but mostly new ones and minis. So buying old things is new to me. I love this phase...

    Great tip, Coreya; thanks! At redbookjars.com the #12 issue is $20 cheaper than elsewhere. I can just about afford that one!

    I got me an adorable Midget jar!

    Thanks, Coreya! I've been seeing those Red Books. Should I aim for the most recent publication? I would assume so. They aren't cheap, are they? But I guess if I'm gonna get into another form of collecting, it'd be a good investment. Plus I like reading the little back stories about how &...

    Wow - thank you so much! Glad to hear you think it's the real deal. It's in such good shape, I almost couldn't believe it was an original. I just adore this little jar. I only own seven aqua fruit jars, and this one is the nicest one I've bought so far.

    I got me an adorable Midget jar!

    Hi, everybody. I'm a total noob; just started looking at aqua Mason jars online. I like the pretty aqua color and have started to learn about the different types. This is my first Midget jar; just got it. I love mini anything, and this little jar is just adorable. I'm hoping it's not a...
