<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bluumz, post: 840556, member: 649&quot;]Bit of an oddball item, and not particularly valuable, but my kitchenalia penchant made me buy it. Lid says, “<a href="http://www.cambridgeglass.org/articles/8992/90crystalball210a.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cambridgeglass.org/articles/8992/90crystalball210a.php" rel="nofollow">sanitary cheese preserver</a>, remove lid daily, directions: place one third pint vinegar and one tablespoon full salt in bottom slightly diluted with water, patent applied for“. Heavy glass, stands about 5&quot; tall without lid, and is about 7&quot; diameter.</p><p>According to the article I linked to above, the patent would have been received about 1928, so I suppose this one would pre-date that?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]195210[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]195211[/ATTACH]</p><p>Bubbles:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]195212[/ATTACH]</p><p><img src="http://www.cambridgeglass.org/articles/8992/cheese1.1090.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>EDIT: Hmmm, here&#039;s one with the Cambridge sticker and it&#039;s lid says Patent Applied For. It&#039;s thought that Cambridge took over production of these from Carl Tanner &amp; Co. in the late 1930s. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/2GUAAOSwv-xb0lcC/s-l1600.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
