The Kerr self-seal wide mouth mason jar (pat. no. 1702795) and the Ball Perfect Mason No. 5 are both iconic canning jars with rich histories. The Kerr jar, introduced in the 1910s, is known for its reliability in home canning, while the Ball Perfect Mason, first produced in 1913, is highly sought after by collectors, especially in its distinctive blue color. The value of these jars can vary significantly based on condition and rarity; the Ball jar can range from $10 to several hundred dollars, particularly if it has unique features or is in excellent condition. Collectors often appreciate the historical significance and craftsmanship of these jars.
There are several purposes of the lid and rim on home canning jars. The 2-piece closure allows air to escape from the jar during processing. The air is pushed out of the jar by steam building up in the jar during the hot water bath method and from pressure in a pressure canner. During the canning process the air escapes under the lid. This is supposed to happen. If improper headspace is left in the jar it can cause liquid to escape from the jar when the air is vented. Check your recipes closely for headspace and measure each jar when filling.
