Tom Dimitroff sends along these goodies.

In response to the question about the Olive Dish in color, as a resident of Corning I have seen several pieces of post 1932 or Modern Steuben whimseys that were made by workmen during slow times or their breaks. They are fun to have.

Also, my going through old photos continues. I thought some of the lamp lovers might like to see these photos. The first was a piece I had many, many years ago. It is a Rosaline over Alabaster cut back. What made it unusual was that it was made in two pieces. The second lamp in “Green Aurene” with an Intarsia border speaks for itself. Finally, an unusual but terrific acid-etched (ACB) lamp shade. Well, Wish I had them now.
