Atlas Shoulder Mason Jar Antique Pint with Zinc Lid circa 1910s-1930s
A classic piece of American canning history, this Atlas Shoulder Mason jar features the embossed 'ATLAS SHOULDER MASON' lettering on the front and comes with its original zinc screw-on lid. The base is marked with what appears to be 'MHCo' and the mold number '807-17', indicating manufacture by the Hazel-Atlas Glass Company. The jar is a standard pint size (approximately 4.5 inches tall, 3 inches in diameter) and displays the characteristic clear glass and wide-mouth shoulder design typical of early 20th century production. The glass is free of cracks and chips, retaining good clarity with only minor surface haze consistent with age. The original zinc lid shows heavy patina, oxidation, and surface pitting throughout, which is expected for its age and adds to the charm for collectors and decorators alike. A great find for farmhouse decor, primitive antique collections, or vintage kitchen displays.
