ITEM DG50. "WM. UNDERWOOD
/ & CO. / BOSTON" FANCY PICKLE JAR, brilliant blue green,
generally cylindrical with six bulged panels and lobed shoulders,
iron pontil scar, 11 5/8" H, hand-tooled single collar mouth,
an attic quality jar in perfect condition. American, C.1850,
rare.
Rare even in aquamarine, this is only the second example of this
attractively formed Boston pickle jar that we have encountered
in a real "color." The bottle is of attic quality with
NO damage, wear or staining and as shown, it is also beautifully
crude and very boldly embossed.
