Been giving a lot of thought to my Ball jar. Mine does not look like the example shown in the Dating a ball jar by it's logo example. If multi thousands of my jar were made, then it would be in the example. I am assuming the example would have been drawn correctly. Could I have an extremely rare jar? I'm thinking not many in this forum are into jars, but hoping someone would have some knowledge. Thanks for looking.

Not rare I'm afraid. That handy identification chart you found is rather incomplete and jars with 'BALL' in a capital, italicised, serifed font are not uncommon. The inclusion of the word 'PERFECT' puts it between 1913-1922

Thanks Red-Coat. I've never seen this chart. It's a keeper.
