    Dundee Marmalade Jar Reconstructed From Fragments

    I was digging at a 1940's bottle dump yesterday and found the fragments to a James Keiller & Son's Dundee Marmalade jar. I have only ever found one that wasn't broken, now I have two reconstructed examples to go with it. The bottom says "Pot made in England"

    Broken dreams- two bottles that didn't make it
