antique 1908 Ball Ideal canning jars, glass lightning lids w/ wire bails

Four vintage quart size fruit jars, clear glass with the glass covers (no seals) and wire bail closures. These are all embossed with the Ball Ideal brand name and a 1908 US patent date..

These have been used, then stored away for many years, and both have some rust spotting to the wire bails. We wouldn't suggest these jars for home canning or preserving food without refrigeration, but they make wonderful kitchen and pantry storage canisters!
