"Preserving Memories: A Journey Through Time with the Jam Jar" Step back in time and explore the fascinating history of jam jars through a collection of remarkable artworks and artifacts. Tommys School Hamper, 1894 (oil on board): Amongst the treasures lies an exquisite Log Cabin pattern marmalade covered jar from around 1875, created by the renowned Central Glass Company. Its intricate design transports us to a simpler era. Jelly Jar, c. 1936. Creator: Dorothy Posten: This charming piece captures the essence of nostalgia with its delicate details and timeless appeal. It reminds us of lazy summer afternoons spent enjoying homemade jams. Pottery Jam Jar, c. 1938. Creator: Magnus S. Fossum: Crafted with love and skill, this pottery jam jar embodies both functionality and beauty – a testament to human creativity throughout history. Great Expectations, 1880 (oil on canvas): Just like Pip's aspirations in Dickens' classic novel, these jam jars hold endless possibilities within their glass walls – promising sweetness and delight for those who open them. Is Jack ready for Sunday School? (color photo): In this candid snapshot capturing everyday life, we catch a glimpse of a young boy holding his beloved jam jar tightly as he heads off to Sunday school - perhaps carrying it as his own little treasure trove. Girl and Boy Fishing with Rod, Christmas Card (chromolitho) & The Young Anglers: These delightful illustrations depict children joyfully fishing together while cherishing their favorite pastime - just like our ancestors cherished their homemade preserves stored in trusty jam crocks created by Carl Buergerniss circa 1940. These young lads are having fun fishing with a net in the Coventry Canal at Cash' Page from Army and Navy Stores Catalogue, 1939-40 (litho).
