Jar No 217

Kirsty Hall: Jar No 217, August 2011

I’ve seen or collected a jar: Collected a jar

Number on lid of jar: 217

Your name (optional): zack parker

Date jar found (optional): 06/08/11

If you collected a jar, what motivated you to pick it up? (optional):
it was there

Where is the jar now? (optional): in the recycling

Oh dear, I do hope Jar No 217 didn’t end up in the recycling. Zack did send me an earlier form where he said it was in his house so perhaps it’s still in existence.

Of course I realise that some of the jars probably do get destroyed but it’s still sad to think of it happening, especially since I put such a huge effort into the jars and they are so valued by the people who hunt them.

May I just gently remind people that if they find a jar that they don’t want or it’s in a spot that’s annoying them, they can very easily re-release it to be found by someone else. You don’t even need to inform me about it, just leave it where it is or move it to a new spot.

If you’re worried about litter, please know that none of the jars will stay outside forever. Most are found within in a month and if any aren’t claimed by the end of the year, I’ll release the actual locations and one of my Jar Fans will undoubtedly go dashing out to find them.

It’s always exciting when older jars are found. This project consumes so much of my time and energy that it’s always a big relief when I don’t have to squeeze in extras like checking up on jars.
