I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about this glassware

I found these glasses in a thrift store. I am assuming that because they have a number on the bottom of the glass that they held some type of product such as peanuts or jelly, etc.
I have searched all over trying to find Info and have finally hit a wall.
I’m not sure how to post a photo so I posted the pictures in my blog.
Thanks for any help!

They look like Ball quilted jelly jars to me. Here’s a link to a photo of the ball jar.

I don’t think they’re canning jars. There is no threading at the top and the pattern isn’t quite the same.
Thank You Vadrafthorse! I hope your Mom knows. Thanks again!

I thought they were Wexford but they aren’t. Don’t have the border of smaller waffle pattern.

I saw one on Tias.com that referred to it at a Quilted Pattern Tumbler. It was priced at $2.95.

These are still pretty common glasses to find at thrift stores as they aren’t really that old. They were made in the 70s and 80s and were sold all over the place.

Agree w/Phoenix and not all jelly jars are threaded. Home jelly can have paraffin sealer and snap on lid
