Any ideas on this one guys? Swiz [8|]

Neat jar but got zip on it in all my references, is it newer and what does the base look like?

 

[swizzle]

Yeah, its gotta be a newer one. Its got ye ol' Owens hicky mark on it and a little ol' #7 on the base and well I'll just let you see the pics. Swiz

I don't think it's newer than the 50's at the latest so should be in a reference somewhere, I'll keep digging (no pun intended)

 

[swizzle]

Thanx man, I appreciate it. I'm really starting to wonder what it contained. Maybe coffee? Who knows. Swiz

I found a reference in the 1920 patent office gazette and I remember something of European make that was similar. the containers held "smoked specially prepared and packed poultry and game birds"

Wow a smoked game bird jar!! Now that is an interesting bit of info. Thanx for the sweet research. Swiz
