The Harvest Carnival large canisters was introduced by the Indiana Glass Company in the mid to late 1970's. It measures 9 inches tall (to the top of the lid) and 6 1/4 inches across the uncovered top. They are cookie jar size and scarce.
Interest and sales in the Harvest carnival was declining. The small canister (candy jar) had been a HUGE success sales wise. In an effort to "revive" sales, the Indiana Glass Company introduced the medium and large canisters. Their thinking was that everyone who had bought a small canister would buy the medium and large ones to complete the set. This did not happen and the medium and large canisters had a short production run. They are tough to find.
The large canister was made in all three of the carnival colors, blue, gold and lime green.
