This is a globe jar embossed with the world map on the outside. On the bottom it's marked with a T inside an upside down triangle. It also states Patent Applied For along with some numbers. I looked up the makers mark and found 2 companies with this mark. Turner Bros. Co. and Travis Glass Co. I am still unable to find anything out about this particular jar. Please help if possible. Thank you.
It was easy to find - just a Google Image search of your first photo:

Thanks for your suggestions! But the makers mark isn't Boyd. It is an inverted triangle with a T in it.
This jar is likely made by Turner Brothers Glass Co of Terre Haute IN 1905-1930 and is a product jar. The seller was probably Dauntless Brand in Indiana. There were two lip styles. One was a push on lid and the other was a standard screw on lid.
