Crumbs from my jar...
It's been a fun week here, it's been Happy Birthday Don Winton week! Don's birthday was a few days ago, but we're celebrating for a whole week.

>>Check out the numerous messages and, if you haven't done so already, add your own! Don and Norma have really enjoyed reading the notes and are touched by everyone caring so much.

>>Jars on the Wanted Bulletin Board include TC Bulldog Cafe and Blues Clues. Jars on the For Sale Bulletin Board - Cathy Jar, McCoy Bugs Bunny Cylinder.

>>And I've keeping up the McCoy Jar poll for another week or so. If you had to name ONLY one jar that meant McCoy to you -- what would it be?

Fun to Collect Sale
Fun to Collect is a neat website that sells all sorts of collectible goodies. I recently received a newsletter from them advertising a 10% sale. And they have agreed to extend the sale until Sunday (June 8th), to give newsletter readers a chance to use it.

"Upon entering the code "FTC0602" in the coupon box at checkout, a 10% discount will be applied to your entire order. " This is only for items that are available for immediate shipment.

(If you have a website and are offering a special sale - be sure and let me know.)

Twin Winton Courthouse?
I've been asked to see if anyone has one of these jars for sale. The owner of the jar inherited from his grandparents, and as you can tell - it's in sad shape.

Do you have one for sale?

Can You Identify This Jar?
I must admit I've not checked all the books yet -- but I've looked in about half of mine. Do you know who made this owl jar? California Original ? Treasure Craft?
Values?

He's back................
Who? Roger Jensen. But this time he is marking jars Jensen-McCoy and advertising them as new jars and breaking them down into series on his web site.
