No, your not giving too much away mate, I'm in SA so I wont worry you. :Y:
The 'Ponds' jar is probably 30's-70's, long gone to plastic now, but anything high quality cosmetic was in and still is in glass, if it is ceramic it is older. (Milk glass ? White glass)
The glasses are not cream cheese or Vegemite in my opinion, the bases appear to be rounded on the edge and too small for diameter, no bulging lip on the outside of the rim
for the lid to hook onto, and the glass too thin also, but they do fit the era in your mix.
LOL, I do still drink out of those old Vegemite glasses (the few that are left) and we had those cream cheese one's too, great little glasses for kids,
replacements were not hard to find, and the glass was thick too.
Many sets of glasses were subtle in shape and format but plain, smaller so as to be usable but not let people think you were a boozer, it was about style then,
I may even have some from an estate sale, I collected glasses for a while, focused upon shot and smaller glasses, decanters too.
Decanters were often sold with these glasses as a set - think aperitif drinks.
Could we get some closer pic's please ?
Do you Easterners know of a beer glass called a 'Butcher', and what about 'Pony' ?
You have Pots and Pints... in SA we used to go .. Pony, Butcher, Schooner, Pint, Jug - from smallest to largest glassware in SA.
The Butcher is all but disappeared from memory, especially in Pub's and Bar's.
No one seems to know the Pony anymore.
In my early 20's I drove to Perth and mapped out every Town on route, I had a 'Butcher' in a Pub in every town I drove thru,
because they are small.
After I passed thru PT Augusta I was too tipsy to have any more, luckily there were no more open Pub's before I hit the border.
