Got 2 unlisted jars

[deenodean]

Stanford's Market, Montreal , 12 ounce, clear, rayed bottom, the seam stops at the bottom of the threads so I presume the top is applied, no mention of this jar in my jar books.
Sugars & Canners LTD , Montreal , an unlisted variation of RB 2759-3. Tall pint amethyst , bottom and 1" up from bottom rayed, applied top, very heavy jar, 1 lb, 7.3 oz
No mention of this variant in my jar books.
Has any one seen either?

Good acquisitions! Never seen anything like those here, their base reminds me of the glassware found in oats back in the 60's.

I can't say I have but I'm more surprised that the one is listed, most store and product jars aren't. It may have been a submission that got added and may have not been properly submitted so it came out that way.Very nice and I'd guess for something rather fancy like martini olives for the first and a fancy candy or even a ice cream syrup for the other. Just a guess.

Your Sugars Ltd jar is described exactly in Barclay's "The Canadian Fruit Jar Report". It suggests it may have been a product jar by the Dominion Glass Co. of Montreal. The other jar is not listed.

Thanks for the replies. Yes my guess it was made at Dominion Glass in Montreal. This Sugar and Canners jar variation though is not mentioned , the book does say ' no variations', albeit this book was written in 1977. There is a collector in Ontario who has this same jar, it appears to be a scarce example. The Stanford's Market Montreal seems to be scarcer , I will put more feelers out there for more info. With both having the same rayed bottom my guess they were made at Dominion Glass, Montreal.

Is your book and old Red Book. #10 lists SCA and clear and rayed and smooth base. It still doesn't include "canners" though

 

[deenodean]

Eric. I have both Redbook 10 and 11, no mention of Sugar's & Canners , Montreal in RB 11 either, only Sugar 's LTD Montreal.

 

[cowseatmaize]

OK, I still have no idea what book your talking about then.

That's a nice looking book. It's more in line with Alice's' "Works" books. I like RB but it's more just a list with little thought or history in it. I need Vol 2 of "Works" and now that one too maybe.
