Mason jar--vertical letters

[sunflower2]

Can anyone tell me anything about a square, 24 oz Mason jar with the word MASON in block letters running vertical on the jar beside measuring marks? The back of the jar has a picture of tomatoes. I haven't purchased it yet, so can't include a picture at this time. I can't seem to find it listed in Red Book.

Thanks!

Hi, I believe these to be modern jars that you buy with pasta sauce in them. They are similar in size and shape to the debossed (pressed into the glass) Atlas jars that the Classico brand is packed in. I'm not sure what brand it is, but I'm pretty sure that's it. In other words, if you found it in an antique store or flea market, you'd probably be better off buying it at the grocery store - at least you'll get some pasta sauce! -Tammy

Thanks, Tammy! The jar is at an antique shop. It's always best to check one out before buying.
