Congratulations ... the SURE Jar should be a RB-2771 . Lid is not correct matching , missing Metal Spring Band Clamp . RB-10 lists it as an $800.00 + jar with closure being 35-50% of Value ! It appears I have all the Port Jervis NY & Milford , PA bottles , but would need to see the citronish P.E. Gumaer & Armstrong Pharmacy in person to be sure . I would be interested in the others as duplicates if you decide to trade or sell them . Ed

Thanks guys. That's definitely the jar. It's a little rough condition-wise but very cool nonetheless. I told my wife I might have to get into collecting fruit jars now. She gave me "that" look so I guess I won't. Maybe inks. Even she likes those!

Hey Ed, I heard there is a cure from Stroudsburg...Phenix Drug Co cure for something I think. Do you have one of those?

There's a lot of NJ stuff there. Was there any Paterson NJ bottles cause we all know who would want them.[;)]

Well, it's been a while but my friend told me he finally found the missing milk bottles! Unfortunately, his estimate of 80-90 bottles was a bit high as there were only about two dozen. I went to check them out...several Bordens, Woodlawn Dairy, unembossed... I found a few worth keeping though:
Two Monroe Dairy East Stroudsburg, PA
Harold Martin Downingtown PA
Port Jervis Dairy Co
S.R. March Jr Port Jervis NY
Wm. Smith Waverly PA
Diamond Dairy store bottle Port Jervis NY
W.T. Wilson Greenwich NY

He had two from Milford PA but he told me he's taking stuff to a firehouse flea market near Milford soon so I suggested that rather than sell them to me for a couple dollars he should take them there because he'll probably get more for them. We decided that was best for those.

It was another nice day. He even showed me a picture of a huge coyote he's been hunting on his property!
