paid for the color - citron pint jar????

epgorge · May 28, 2007

I paid $20 bucks for it today at a flea market. I couldn't pass it by, even though I knew nothing about it, except the color. I think it is Citron or an Olive Yellow. What do yo think?

Cookie told me if I find anything of color for $10-20 bucks, I should get it. How'de I do?

Please excuse my ignorance but is an EZ Atlas jar, a Ball Jar?
[/align]Secondly, I am trying to find out if this Citron(?) has a misprint on it. The bottom has either a 9 or a 6 (with a line under or over, I would assume under). The number is backward, either way you look at it. You tell me if I am seeing this right. [/align]

Now that I put it next to the only sqauat I have I see it probably isn't a squat afterall. It is just a pint, I guess....

I realy have no idea Joel but it sure ain't clear , aqua or ball blue. Nice addition for the color.

Hey Joel, Most atlases are not worth that much but rare colors like that change everything. I will look it up in a bit and see if there is a color listed like that.

Very cool by the way.

Thanks Cap.

John (Cookie) just called me and said (I wish I wrote this down, correct me John if I am wrong) it is a lime yellow with hints of amber. With the lid it would be worth about $75. He thinks he has a lid for it....

He also gave me a site to check for color. I will check it out and post it here.

Yep, John is right and the sky blue one is no schlepper comming in at 30-40 bucks with lid and bail.

I saw one of them at the milwaukee bottle show and someone picked it up for 100 with the lid and closure so i would definately say a good find!!
