Queensland / (Pineapple with map of Queensland and Q) / Fruit Jar. Smooth base. Household Preserving Jar Lightning type closure. Aqua. Quart. 166 mm. 1900s
Mint. Absolutely superb example of this jar. Ground lip is in great shape with just the usual minor nibbles around the inside of it. Really difficult to find any marks anywhere else. A few light scratches and some grime around the neck is about it. Original bail and lid - note that the lid has some stain where something has dripped on to the top of it but generally a really nice clean lid as well with no damage. Grade however is for the jar only. Beautiful early jar with lovely air bubbles through it and nice strong embossing. Grade: 9.8 Estimate: $150 - 200
