Clear 1/2 gallon.... (See Pics) Came across this jar recently, and I am not sure if I have found one that is unlisted in the red book. My newest edition of the RB is #9. So The jar falls roughly in the RB# 1510 Range... I think.... RB mentions these are marked with...
<THE LIQUID> (In a diamond) and then The Liquid Carbonic Company. and some then also have patent dates.
However this jar has only the words <THE LIQUID> (In a diamond) and the number "3" under this diamond on the bottom. No other markings. Then there is the seal.... does not look like anything the RB mentions for these.

So I guess my questions are...

1 - Is this an unlisted jar? Or does RB #10 (if that is the laest) list it.

2 - Anyone know what type of closure this would have had? Lid? Picture?

Thanks!

I have RB 10, it does not list this jar. A picture of the bottom would be nice. I have noticed this jar is SCA , ( sun colored amethyst) which is not a listed color , only clear and aqua. The # 3 is the mold number!
I am sure other members will comment.
Nice find !!

Here is a pick of the bottom. Very shallow marking that is easier to see in person than to get a picture of for sure.
Also the jar is to my eyes clear, with maybe the very faintest trace of amethyst/sun... The pictures above seem to be effected by the lighting/camera and look way way more amethyst than it does in person... Sorry, should have done better pics.

This picture of the mold mark on the side of the base shows the color the best.
