Title: My Jar/Sorry! Newbe here.
Post by: Carleen on July 15, 2014, 02:37:52 PM

Hi!  I was given this jar from a lady that I care for.  And she only remembers finding it in
a second hand store many, many years ago.  Can anyone tell me anything about it?

Thanks to You All!

Is anything on the bottom of it ?? Or is it marked in anyway ??  It reminds me of the Ginger jars and other Oriental items popular back in the 70`s !! Cant see it well enough to tell what the decorations are !!

That's quite interesting !! You might try to take a alcohol swab and remove the writing !! Hate when people use a felt tip on stuff !!  If you know anyone that's a nurse, works at a hospital, or is a diabetic,,they will have the alcohol pads that are individually wrapped !! That's what I use to take the marks off !! For some reason they work much better than the bottled alcohol !! They are stronger I think !!
