    hand whittled mini quart ???

    I do not know how to post a link but you can find this one easily on ebay. Just search the term in the subject of this post. Some of the ebay seller descriptions are odd but this one almost had me rolling on the floor[8|]. George

    Porcelain Lined Midget lid

    The community might be interested in seeing this lid that I recently spotted on a common midget. The Porcelain Lined lids are hard enough to find in the standard mouth size. The midget lids (almost) never show up. For those who have a copy of the Fruit Jar Annual 2012/2013 this is the type three...

    unlisted Lyman pint w lid

    I just got this from that nice lady who put boxes on my porch. Not only is this jar not listed (one star) but there are no pints listed in the series with the 1867 date. Light whittle and very near mint with only minor signs of use. The lid is in OK condition but does have just a trace of the...

    Crude jars on ebay

    I have some items ending on Thursday June 6th. The three jars on the right do not have any bids yet. I suspect that someone will pick them up for the opening bid. The Ball quart and the heavy orange peel Mason's are very good crude jars. If someone is going to get them very cheap, I would be...

    Crude Wax Sealer

    A ton of seed bubbles, some minor swirls, light whittle and sky blue/ice blue in color. I needed a good example of seed bubbles for the crude collection and it looks like this will do nicely. [8D] George

    GLOBE jars color variations

    I do not collect Globe jars but I do have four here and they provide some small indication of the wide color range that is available from this series. Globes range from clear (colorless) to black with some greens and rarely blue. The jars on the outside are part of my crude jar collection. The...

    unlisted "ELECTRIC" BRAND BITTERS

    I finally bought a copy of "BITTERS BOTTLES" by Ring and Ham. This bottle is not listed. It is the same as E31 with the exceptions: It has the "ELECTRIC" BRAND BITTERS on both front and back panels and it has numbers on the base. If a forum member has the supplement to Ring and Ham would you see...

    Crude Mason's pint

    This is a shoulder seal jar. I think that it might be somewhat difficult to seal this one. The sides are pushed in as well. The jar is a green aqua, heavily whittled and damage free. It might just find a place in the crude collection. George

    straw marked Balll Mason

    Ball jars often have some minimal crudity such as a few bubbles or a straw mark or a slight whittle or some waviness. Sometimes they have missing letters due to filled molds. My experience has not found substantial crudity in them. This example, while not an extremely crude jar, is a very nice...

    Re-sizing program

    Many people who post here seem to have a hard time making the picture file small enough. I use a free (old version) and very easy to use program that you can download easily. FastStone Capture 5.3 Just google the name above and you will have multiple choices for download. AGAIN: FREE...

    VIRGIL'S 7 oz.

    I picked this up with a group of other bottles. I was surprised to be unable to find any information on it. The only id beyond the name is 'trade mark' under the name, 'CONTENTS 7 OZS. on the heel and '7 FLU.OZS. / 29 S' on the base. The bottle is 7 7/8 inches tall. Any information would be...

    Crude Fruit Jars Wanted

    I am looking for extremely crude common jars for my collection. The following pictures will give you some idea of the level of crudity that I want. Any in the making crudity is desired. Open bubbles, pot stones and junk in the glass are all highly desirable to me. George

    Unmarked Globe widemouth

    I bought this jar at the Kalamazoo show. I had my eye on the marked lid since it is quite hard to find. The surprise came when I could not find the jar listed in Red Book. There are no identifying marks on the jar itself. It seems very likely that this was a product jar with a label. There are...

    RB#1920 slight variations in CFJCo mono

    That is the term used in the book. (slight variations) These are three quarts that I happen to have. This is the first time that I have set them next to one another. The one in the middle has the normal sized monogram. The other two represent the largest and smallest that I have seen on this...
