I think this is supposed to be a quart and a half, but maybe it's a HG.
It's kind of difficult to tell with the strange shaped body.
This is another crazy closure jar in what I'd call a light teal. It
has the original lid which is very cool and the only place where the name of
the jar appears. It's a bit difficult to tell from the photo but the
lid is called the "propeller lid" because it has two "propellors" on top of
it which slant and as you turn the lid, these slanted "propellors" slide
under the metal tabs you see and press the lid against the jar.
This is another example of a very early non-embossed slightly off color
jar. These jars were produced during the civil war period. I
also have a pint which is very cool.
