An early aqua quart "Crowleytown" Mason. Crisp embossing and in good condition with no damage or stains, except for some deposits under the bottom of the jar. Flat base and a sheared and ground mouth. Comes with an early unlined zinc cap that is impressed on top in a circular arrangement "TRADE MARK SMS CO ALWAYS RELIABLE", with 2 soldered-on lugs on top. At first I thought perhaps the top lugs had been added, since this is not normal for an SMS cap, but on close inspection there is no trace whatsoever of the usual vertical side lug on this lid. Therefore it may be a rare variation. The cap is in good solid condition and nicely flat across the top. The threaded mouth of the jar has a bubble that was ground into during the making with some whitish canning juices inside. A great looking old Crowleytown jar.
