49	Beehive Half Gallon. Red Book #433. Alongside the Beaver, the Beehive is probably Canada's most recognizable and sought-after jars. This half gallon specimen is spectacular! Mint.

50	Perfect Seal Emerald Pint. Red Book #2344. Pint size lightning style Perfect Seal in the most amazing rich emerald green. Believed by some to originate from a Western shipment of these jars - as they always seem to turn up in Western Canada. Regardless of origin, the colour is impressive. Smooth lip machined jar. Near mint condition with only minor imperfections. Really stands out in a group of jars! Opening Bid: $75 Estimated Range: $100-150 Lot not sold.
