Hello,
This is my 1st post on a bottle forum. I've canned for years but never looked at the bottles as collectible 'til I got some Perfect Mason's at an auction. These things are neat! I am trying to finance my new collecting habit by Ebaying some items, though I don't know how well it will work out. The few I have bought I can't find info on, and am asking your help. These include:
1- Drey Perfect Mason pint jar with screw closure, clear
1- Drey Pat'd 1920 ever improved seal pint jar with bale closure and lid, clear
I also have my eye on a couple of others, including:
1- Lustre re Tongue Bros. Phila, PA quart jar with bale closure and lid
1-Presto Supreme Mason quart jar
All of these jars are in good shape, with no damage that I can see.
I 'll have to pick up a book on identifying jars. What is available?
Thanks for your help.
David
