A question about collectibles: I have inherited some blue/green Atlas canning jars, are they antique?

I am wondering how old they are or how I might find out. They have flat glass lids and I presume were used with rubber gaskets. Not planning to sell, just curious.

1. I have a beer bottle with a glass stop and a rubber gasket, I was took by a antique dealer that it not worth a dollar. I would check several dealers before you sell, I think Atlas is worth a little?
2. Check what they are selling for on eBay. Be sure that any markings on the bottom of the jars are the same as what's sold. Those marks are how you identify the time period the jars were made. If you don't see much in the way of canning jars, it could be that they're not valuable enough to sell. They may be considered antique, but that doesn't always mean valuable.
3. u can try an antique dealer or u can try ebay or just google it
4. I would say yes dear. My friend has some, and said that they are. that takes a red rubber, flat O-ring eagle
