    I think I found this at a yard sale for around $2.00.
    Holds 1 pint, wide mouth, Word Special below Ball.
    Number 5 on bottom.
    Even though it has a crack at one of the side seams, I love it!
    Can anyone tell me anything about this jar?
    Thank you.

      Hello, I looks like a half pint from the picture. My friend sold one at auction last month in Princeton, Indiana. It brought $50.00. You did well my friend.

      I have a clear jar like this. It is on the 1923-1933 font though and it has a ribbed bottom. Can't find info on it anywhere. Came from my great-grandmothers collection.
