DESCRIPTION

Size: GALLON sized advertising/promotional jar

Color: AQUAMARINE

Closure: Rare (or possibly unique) large original unlined zinc cap with two soldered lugs on top and stamped circle on top that reads "TRADE MARK SMS CO ALWAYS RELIABLE". Possibly the first example of this lid to come to light (in any size). The cap has some crushing in the zinc threads, but no holes or splits in the zinc, and could be restored to perfection if desired.

Appearance: shiny

Condition: chip out of the threads, but no cracks emanating, and not visible at all with the cap in place

Strength of embossing: strong

Base: unmarked

Age: c1865-1870, probably the earliest known oversize Mason

Availability: Extremely rare oversize Beehive Mason. This jar was recently discovered complete with the lid at a general antiques shop in the state of Texas.
