Anyone ever heard of "Drey" canning jars? I saw some today. They are a grey-ish color. They say "drey perfect mason." They have all kinds of little bubbles all over. I looked into it on eBay and someone claimed that they were made from 1917-1920's. True? |

I have one that I have had for years. You don't see them very often. A good find. How much were they asking for them?

True. I have 1/2 gal ones with nice zinc lids that I keep sugar and oatmeal in. They were my grandma's and I just love the colors of them and the bubbles in the glass. I just don't can in them. Great find. Smiles, Melody June
