This is my flea market treasure from Madison, IN. It is perfect condition other than needs a good cleaning. No chips or dings. It came with a little tin lid. Please someone tell me me they didn't reproduce this jar. Does anyone know any thing about this jar? Is it worth anything?

Thank-you,

I am quickly becoming seriously obsessed with fruit jars. I thought I would share a few of my favorites. Can anyone tell me about the Quick Seal and the square Ball Ideal quarts? Thank-you.

Hi all. Does anyone know how to tell the age of old wells? I have 2 on my property. Both are quarried rock on is about 20' deep. Are they worth trying to pump out? I'll take pics tonight and post. One of them has a ring carved out of a single rock for the top.
Thanks,
Lisa
