An aqua quart "HOOSIER JAR" that is a gorgeous example with sparkling glass and no damage or stains and a nice light whittled effect. Normal minor flaking of the ground rim edge. Strong embossing and correct original glass cap. Base: "1".

The family has indicated that they believe the lid on this jar to be the original artifact that started Phil's collecting interest in jars. If you ever talked to Phil about how he got into the hobby, he may have told the story of finding this lid exposed in the dirt in an old schoolyard many years ago. The lid is in fine shape with just a trace of haze.
