Dug this at the factory site in Muncie, IN. Appears to be a large battery jar. Embossed AUTO-LITE on front. Has sharp drips pointing upwards around the top of the container. Anyone ever see one of these before? This jar was found in about 25-30 different shards that I glued back together also I believe this jar was made in the 1940s or 50s because all of the insulators in this area have 40s and 50s date codes on them.
