Hello Alan,

I must tell you that as an avid follower of Carder glass, over the decades I felt that I had seen a majority of his creations. The recent weeks where you have pictured the plaques in the Gazette have been a real treat, as I had never seen most of these. It’s a shame that they are not displayed as you alluded to, because it is yet another testament to the artistic genius that was Frederick Carder.
