Large white porcelain straight sided jar with inner markings which seem to serve as measurement levels. Lid is marked: Edison.Lalande.Battery. / Pat.June.17.1890. / other.patents.applied.for. Household Battery White glazed jar and lid. Embossed to lid. 1/2 gallon? 285 mm without lid. 1920s
Excellent. Jar has some scuffs and scratches, but is quite nice and generally unmarked. Lid has some spots of stain and discolouration, some of which is simply dirt. Some minor flakes to the edge. A most unusual piece, we have seen glass battery jars which are much smaller, never have we seen such a large ceramic battery jar. Grade: 8.2 Estimate: $50 - 75
