In my opinion, Beehives are Canada's best jar. The only thing about them that bothers me is that the quarts are actually somewhat common, since Toronto's old Simpson's department store which originally sold honey in them (the jar was the store's registered design) was a fairly large operation with direct sales and mail-order sales. Even though quart Beehives turn up regularly (for example, maybe one a month on average on Ebay), that wonderful graphic sees them get scooped up by collectors across the planet. Heck, I collect poisons and drugstores, and I'm proud to say that I've got one, too!

I don't have that Honey! I do have what I think is Canada's most handsome jar, The Darling with monogram. I love that jar. Nice aqua color, well made and eye catching graphics.Joel
