Does anyone know anything about antiques & collectibles?
My mom had given me an antique mason/canning jar a long time ago, and I was wondering if it was worth anything. It says “Good Housekeepers Regular Mason” on it and it also says “St. Louis” on the bottom of it. I know that Ball Mason jars are a dime a dosen, but I’ve never seen a mason jar like this before and I haven’t had any luck doing internet searches.
The Kovels have a website and publish books on antiques and collectibles. They would probably be your best bet to find out more about your mason jar.

1909 Works $27.64 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Goldenrod (showboat) – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The boat was built in 1909 by Pope Dock Company of Parkersville, West Virginia for W.R. Markle. It cost $75,000 when it was new. At 200 feet long and 45 feet wide, it had an auditorium 162 feet long with twenty-one red velour upholstered boxes and a seating capacity of 1,400. In 1910, twenty-one riverboats plied the Mississippi, visiting 15 mid-western states. By 1928, this number had dwindled to eleven, and by 1938, only five remained in operation. Between the Great Depression, movies, and increased mobility, the days of the showboat were all but over. The Goldenrod was the last showboat to work the Mississippi. Under the ownership of Capt. Bill Menke, she was moored at the St. Louis riverfront in 1937. By 1950, she had been partially sunk and salvaged twice. Shows were still being staged, and, for 75 cents a head, St. Louis playgoers could board the boat and sass the actors on stage. On June 1, 1962, a disastrous fire, caused by an electrical short, all but destroyed the superstructure of the auditorium, and caused severe damage to the entire structure. The Goldenrod was then purchased by a group of St. Louis businessmen headed by Frank C. Pierson and Don Franz, and restored to her original glory, and beyond. Plush carpeting was laid in the auditorium, with cabaret seating, under a huge crystal chandelier. Many antique appointments were salvaged from old St. Louis mansions being torn down. Brass fixtures and rails were restored or replaced, as was the tin ceiling and elaborate woodwork. A cocktail lounge was added, with a small bandstand, where the St. Louis Ragtimers band played traditional ragtime for many years. The upstairs staterooms were converted into a buffet dining room.
