Found 2 nice Battery Jars from antique stores on my way to GCIC in Racine this weekend. The one on left has no manufacturing embossing at all and is depression glass green. It has a small tornado of bubbles in one corner that lead to a slice of glass missing on one of the corners. Other than that it is a great piece of glass. If anyone has any information on who manufactured these or how they were used, feel free to share. Many at the swap meet thought it was an automotive application.

The other is a perfect Excide Jar in mint condition.
