OLD 1891-1894 ANTIQUE GREEN GLASS WAX SEAL QUART JAR DILLON G CO FAIRMOUNT IND

Description

THIS LISTING IS FOR A VINTAGE GREEN GLASS DILLON G CO FAIRMOUNT IND. QUART SIZED CANNING JAR WITH A WAX SEAL GROOVED TOP.
MY SECOND PHOTO SHOWS THIS NEXT TO AN ORDINARY VINTAGE BLUE BALL JAR SO THAT YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN THE COLORS. THIS LISTING IS FOR THE QUART SIZED WAX SEAL JAR ONLY.
With only a three-year history, the Dillon Glass Co. was a minor player in the glass industry, only making glass from 1891 to 1894.  The plant made Mason and grooved-ring, waxsealer fruit jars.  Because of the firm’s basemarks, it earned a small place in container history.
THIS JAR IS CLOSE TO 7" TALL.
IT HAS WHAT LOOKS LIKE A LIGHT #2 ON THE BOTTOM ALONG WITH DILLON CO FAIRMOUNT IND.
IT HAS NO MAKERS MARKS ON THE SIDES.
IT HAS SOME AIR BUBBLES IN THE OLD WAVY GLASS.
IT HAS A CHIP ON THE RIM THAT I TRIED TO POINT OUT IN AN EXTRA PHOTO. THERE ARE NO CRACKS.
IT HAS THE USUAL LIGHT WEAR MARKS IN THE GLASS THAT YOU SEE ON OLD GLASS CANNING JARS THAT HAVE BEEN USED.
IT DISPLAYS BEAUTIFULLY FOR THE ANTIQUE JAR THAT IT IS. IT WAS RESCUED FROM A FARMHOUSE CELLAR HERE IN INDIANA.
I HAVE LISTED SOME SIMILAR BALL WAX SEAL JARS. I WILL BE GLAD TO COMBINE SHIPPING FOR YOU IF YOU CONTACT ME BEFORE YOU PAY.
PLEASE VIEW ALL 7 OF MY PHOTOS FOR MORE OF A DESCRIPTION.
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING!
