We went to an antique sale today at our Roller Dome. Lots of neat stuff. But the prices of antique canning jars! There were some people asking $150.00Cdn...per jar! It was fun to look at them.
Some pale blue canning jars, and seen one that was sort of lavender.

LOL, they can put any price on things they want, but that doesn't mean anyone will pay it. Years ago, someone started writing guides to old jars and more-or-less invented prices for them that the author thought reflected relative rarity. I have a collection of some 75 jars, btw, all different and mostly old, though for a few the only difference is the size or style of imprinted jar name. I figure that's what they're worth: 75 jars.

Some of us could make a lot of money if we were to pay that kind of price! Wowza!
