What kind of value do milkglass jar lid liners have? I'm not talking about a Boyds but the more uncommon stuff like Nail City liners and the Masons with the Tudor Rose on them. I'm getting quite a few of these stacked on my shelf if they look nice and was just wondering if i should continue to do so. If you want pics just let me know.

Pics are always helpful!
Nail City and Tudor Rose liners would have some value, but the bigger value is in the lettered zinc part of the lid. The more typical liners like Hero's and CFJCo might still have a couple of dollars of value, but not much more. If you have a stack of the less common ones around, I wouldn't throw them away!

Jar lids are often needed and have some value when some one needs a certain one. I know I need one for a smaller pint Ball jar. RED Matthews

I certainly wouldn't throw them away but if they have some value, I may use them as traders or sell them off since I don't really collect them. I have many "go with" items along with marbles and doll parts. Just always wonder why I keep them. Now I know!

thanks a bunch.
