RARE Antique Olive Green BALL MASON Pint buy Jar 1900-1910 with "Triple L", Ball Mason Blown Glass Jar - Handblown glass / Collectible Glass

This is a very old, Olive Green, BALL MASON Pint Glass Jar with the unique "Triple "L" in the BALL emblem and also a antique zinc lid. This "BALL" Logo emblem on its front with the "Triple L" loop, was only produced by Ball during the years 1900-1910, making this a rare and sometimes difficult to find.

The jar has bubbles in the green glass, the mouth opening is rough at the top rim, and it also has a pontil point (raised circle of glass) at its bottom, all indicating that it was hand-blown. In addition it has seams along each side that go all the way to the top of the jar.

This green jar has bubbles in the glass, indicating that it was hand blown. In addition the jar rim opening is a bit rough at the top edges where the glass blowing rod was originally attached, but broken away to release the jar. Following that, the rim was then smoothed off by a grinding wheel. It also has a side seem that runs all the way to the top of the rim.

MEASUREMENTS: It is 5 1/8" tall, with buy a 3.25" width and has a 2.5" mouth rim diameter.

CONDITION: Since this jar has seen over 100 - 125 years of use, it does have a few scratches on it and there seems to be a small line in the glass to the left of the "B" in the emblem. If this is a flaw or crack in the glass, it does not go all the way to the inside. The mouth rim edging is rough at its edges from its original making and has bubbles throughout the glass from the mouth blowing technique.

This is truly a piece of "Canning Jar History."
