Salado Tx. Finds Part 3

[capot1948]

The acrylic paint didn't work too well so I dug out my lighted magnifying glass and lo and behold you could see almost the complete mark on the bowl. Except for some of the 'G' missing and the line that goes through the 'G' it's the same as the one on the below photo, 2nd row, 2nd in from the right.

The 1982 mark ??

[capot1948]

Yes, that's it. You can barely see the line that goes through the 'G' but it's there and the 'V' and dot at the top are there but really faint. I've gone one step further now and posted the bowl at the Imperial Glass Museum's Facebook page and asked for the pattern name.

Think I have everything now on the bowl, here's a reply I got from the National Imperial Glass Museum:

"Daisy and Button. Not to be confused with a popular pattern of the same name, made by many makers. Is this the mark you mentioned? If so then that would be when Arthor Lorch took over the company and operated it from 1981- 82. Before then Lenox owned the company from 1971- 81 and the mark would be the same minus the A"

So I made a note of that so we won't forget. Looks like it's all solved and when my books come in maybe I'll be a bit smarter.
