How about a close up of that nice embossing. Say's "TF" in the diamond...Tropical fruit maybe?...

Hi - Per Redbook, 1/2 gallon is $10 - $15. Made ca. 1930's-1947 by Florida Glass Co., Jacksonville and 1950-1954 by Tropical Glass & Box Co. also of Jacksonville. Some jars have a ghosted FG on the base, apparently for Florida Glass. Hope this helps, Tammy

Hello Tammy. Thanks for the info! My jar has the same diamond shaped logo
containing the "TF" that is embossed on the front. By the way , what is the latest edition of the Red Book? The only ones I've seen are several years old. You know that the jar that was for sale on eBay WAS mine. I have since ended the auction early and cancelled all of the bids. I decided that I wanted to keep it! I dug it up and it felt like I was about to sell one of my kids. It is cool to have too! Ain't it pretty...
