    Small-old-brass-threaded-lid SOLVED!

    I found this at an early log house site here in Texas. Any info on it would be appreciated.

    From what I can see it says A.G. FAY POTTER & OLLIE // MASS POWDER WORKS

    Thats a cool find. It may be CW era. http://www.christies.com/LotFinder/l...jectID=1852739
    I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines.  I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.

    creskol, you are right! I brushed it a little more and noticed that it says, A.G. FAY POTTER & GILLEY

    It is probably the screw top like in your pic.
