I have a very scarce variant of an "1858 Masons" I am interested in getting rid of.

i have one or two i could stand to lose, and i asked my dad (he's more the jar collector than i am) and he has a few he said he could part with too

make an offer on any of these

first up...a quart size 1858 jar this one's not your ordinary 1858 jar it is the "port" mold called that because it has "port" and a mold number on the bottom
