John,
What a beauty! Nice find. Would you call this a honey amber lightening? What is the Putnam number?

Gorgeous jar! What does the embossing say?

I am looking to pick up a fruit jar with lid for my dad's wife - are there any ones that have color that are a reasonable price? Amber, green, citron - and it doesn't really matter the age. She wants it to store her vanilla bean pods which I believe she soaks in bourbon and uses for cooking.

Cindy and Joel- the jar is a Lightning jar-base PUTNAM 278-Cindy-If I'm going to spend a lot of money on a jar I'm getting to the point where I deal with some one I REALLY trust and know on ebay or I'll buy it at a show or where I can pick it up ,look at it, see it, touch it. I'd rather spend a little more money than be sorry.I've been seeing a lot more jars and bottles listed as "mint"on ebay that are not even close......Hoosier Jars on ebay is one I'd look into-he always has a lot of great jars........John
