This one was sold to me by one of my favorite people in jar collecting, Leon Shores.  I always kid Leon about his outrageous prices, but he's really not that bad (hope you're not reading this, Leon).  I had wanted to get an amber Magic Pint for a long time and Leon set this one aside for me and I've got to say it's a nice little specimen.  Beautifully whittled, mint condition, beautiful color - you really couldn't ask for more.

I don't think I've mentioned whittling anywhere else.  Whittling doesn't mean the jar was carved from wood, although at one time people thought the molds were carved from wood and hence the name.  In reality, what happes is that when the molds were cold first thing in the morning and the hot glass hit the cold mold it "shrivelled" and caused bumps in the glass that look very much like they were whittled out by a woodcarver.

Whittling is one part of what we call glass character which is the way the glass appears due to individual idiosyncrasies present when the jar was made.  The amount/size of bubbles can be a desirable trait in glass character.  Sometimes junk that got in the glass can make it interesting.  All of this stuff may or may not start a collector's heart beating.  This is something that's mainly up to individual taste - if you like the look of the glass, then for you it's got good character.  If not...well, it doesn't.
