What is the earliest Lightning jars? 1501? 1489? or neither? For the past several months I have been getting different closure jars, nice early examples...which is actually turning out decent. I wanna put something together that represents fruit jar history, not just brilliant colors (which are nice...LOL) or just amber jars.... There were ALOT of "flash in the pan" producers that did some excellent early thinking on what the perfect jar would be....build a better mouse trap right...LOL I have fellow jar folks over, I wanna have something to look at and talk about besides Ball Brothers or a rainbow of Lightning colors, they are nice by all means, but as I said before, there is ALOT to fruit jar history. But ya know what, I don't know what the earliest Lightning jars look like.... David PS...Any collectors that are near the Altamont, NY area...lets talk jars....
