Put flowers in it and make it a vase. Or you could glue buttons on it and make a collage on the jar. You could even paint a picture on it if you wanted to.
With a quality paint stripper, follow the directions on the container.
Glass was used as a lens protector. Now we use plastic.
The date is the patent date, not the manufacturing date. Many jar manufacturers used the mason jar patent. The value will depend on the condition and the actual size - how many gallons, quarts, etc. I have been researching the value of a 7 gallon jar with the same date and with an eagle on the other side. The value appears to be between 25 and 50 dollars. The jar is a new one. Only 25 or 30 years old. That should give you some idea. The reference below is a history of the fruit jar. It has a section on how to date your jar. Found it just after I answered your question. http://www.fohbc.com/FOHBC_References3.html
In Medieval Times, stained glass windows were created to illustrate the teachings of the Bible for a largely illiterate population. +++ They are still made, not because the population is generally illiterate but for aesthetic reasons (or to repair old ones). Nowadays such windows, if made for churches are as likely to illustrate some local theme or subject relevant to the church and its congregation as to illustrate Bible stories. They can also be for secular buildings, as decoration. Nor need modern stained-glass windows illustrate anything, but they can be simply coloured for the play of light through them.

old shoes
Yes it is perfectly fine to reuse old crutches. I would only consider a new set if you have gotten significantly taller.
A Ball Mason jar with a number 1 on the bottom is not very old. The 1 on the bottom denotes the type of recycling the jar requires if one is to recycle it. Recycling was not a big factor in manufacturing until the late 1970's. CORRECT ANSWER: I'm sorry but your answer is very incorrect. There have never been numbers on glass to denote recycling needs. Glass is glass. The numbers you refer to are on plastics. The number on the bottom of most jars indicates the mold number and/or, on the much older jars, the mold blower's ID and count references.
