Jar shaped like a globe / the world with raised continents and Ball Zinc lid

VirginiaHuffman

I have two 1 quart canning jars shaped like the world and has raised continents. Has a G on the bottom like a makers mark stands alone, along with a 3 that is by itself and patent pending number of 210 or 2E0 on the bottom. Can anyone give me any information on age ,maker or anything about this jar? it Has a Ball zinc screw on lid? I have looked everywhere without luck. This is a very unique jar and I would love to know more about it and who makes it and when it was made. Thanks for any help!

One should be a bit hesitant to label any machine made bottle or jar as "rare" given that machine made does imply mass-production.

I have a hunch that your jar is related to the JFG peanut butter jars of similar design.

Here is a link to one on ebay:
