In Gazette #542 of the article by Bob Mueller some had trouble connecting the links provided. (x&*$% computers) If they don’t work you can copy them and insert them in your browser and they will work. However, here they are again and hopefully each one will work by double clicking.

Then, in Gazette #543 Wilson Craigie had a question about an early piece of crystal. Ed Bush of Painted Post, NY writes in response:
Alan,
Responding to Wilson Craigie’s question, I wish to report that a Carder Steuben bowl with green machine threading and the same engraved design as on Mr. Craigie’s vase is illustrated on page 32 of Gardner’s book. The caption states that “Carder said this was the first engraved piece made at Steuben, about 1904.”

A similar bowl or vase with the same threading and engraved design is located in the first room of the Carder Steuben Gallery at CMoG, as I recall. Ed Bush

Dick Stark of Bethesda, MD says he thinks
that’s a Durand shaped vase
