Mason whimpsey jar

By Lucasracing, 7 July, 2009
Description

Blue/green color. ABM. The word BALL on the front of jar is partially missing. The first L is missing and the second L is partially missing. The top of the B is partially missing. Lots of deep ari bubbles. If you place you hands in the inside of jar you can feel indentations. From the outside you can hold the jar eye level and actually see the finger marks on the jar If you place your own finers in these places your thumb ends up on the other side where part of the owrd is missing as though someone help the jar up and was looking at it whe it was still hot. For the right price this jar may be sold. I need to know if this is truely a rare item. Was told by someone who collects old jars that this was once in a life time thing.
