This is the two screw version of the Dalbey's in aqua. My three
screw version in clear is here.
This one has most of it's very rare original closure. The only part
that's missing is the plate held to the top of the jar. The three
screw version I have has three "pads" around the jar with leather stuffed
behind each one. This one has a "ring of leather around the entire
jar. I'm not sure whether this is a distinction of two screw Dalbey
jars or whether there are three screw ones with a ring rather than a pad.
Given the scarcity of these jars and especially ones with completed
closures, it's a bit difficult to say.
I wanted a Dalbey's for the longest time before I got my first one.
I remember it used to be on the cover of the RedBook and that's where I
first fell in love with the crazy closure.
