Description: A small (2 1/4" tall) beautiful white MILK GLASS colored, little round antique COSMETIC CREAM jar. This is a very early little jar that dates well over 100 years old. What makes it worthy of consideration is that there is a blatant spelling and/or embossing error on the base of the jar, a large BACK WARD "N" in the embossing on the base of this jar.Jar embossed on shoulder: "INGRAM'S MILK WEED CREAM".Base of jar embossed: "BOTTLE PAT'D / No 481953". Note that the "N" in "No" is very clearly backwards, a mold maker's mistake for sure! Condition: Jar is in good condition. It has some rust spots on it from being found in an old bottle dump along wth rusted tin cans. Otherwise all is good, NO cracks, chips, dings, damage, etc. Age: An ABM jar with a smooth-top, ca. early 1900's.Shipping: All DOMESTIC shipping charges INCLUDE insurance. We have enjoyed shipping our items all over the world and are happy to offer most of our items to international buyers. Yet insuring International parcels is very expensive so PLEASE NOTE; we do NOT insure International orders unless winning buyer specifically requests this and we are able to provide an insurance quote. We do not falsify information on the Customs Form, such as a price other than what the actual purchase price is, so please do not request us to do so. We ship several times a week and send payment acknowledgments and shipping confirmations. Your prompt payment will assure a very quick turn-around time. IMPORTANT NOTE: If our shipping charge is much more than the actual shipping cost, we will refund the excess so what YOU pay for shipping/insurance is very close to, if not exactly, the ACTUAL shipping costs! This is especially important for foreign buyers to know as most of our foreign shipping charges are only estimates.Ingram's MILK WEED Cream was a complexion cream that also doubled as a quack remedy used to cure burns, mosquito bites, poison oak, sun burn, etc. These are an early jar as some even were hand blown into mold, ones just like this one. Yet what makes this one so collectible by far is the LARGE BACKWARDS "N" on the base embossing, a blatant mold maker's mistake from a century ago, a sign of the times, check it out!
