The fish label is silver but I think the original colour was green.  |

Tigerchips...I did look up the history of S.S. Kresge Co. and I found it changed it's name in 1977 to K-mart. So at least I know that much. I guess the vase could have been sold at anytime up to 1977.
Bubbles...Thanks for your reply on the website it's nice to hear.
Anne...I do see it! Thanks...Maybe I should change the caption under the label since the vase could have been sold in the 70's too. How do I change what's under the picture? Do I just delete it and upload it again? And if so how?

You should see an edit description button under the image Cathy? If you don't see that then you could e-mail me the new text and I can edit it for you.

Hi Cathy, Paul came up with this info on your retailers label.... If you can locate a former Kresge stock clerk, I have no doubt they will be able to tell you instantly what year that Murano vase was put on sale and the price paid by Kresge. The information is all on the sticker, but in a simple commercial code.
J,J,Newberry, my employer c. 1960, used the words "Palmer John" in which p =1, a=2, etc., and x designated repeat. (The sum of $11.49 translating to PXMN.) When used with the prefix 3 and the suffix 1 or 61, as in 3PXMN61, you could tell the item went on sale in March of 1961, at a cost of $11.49 each, or per dozen for lower priced items. |

Thanks for the info, but I still can't make heads or tails out of it. It doesn't seem to me, to follow that explanation. Maybe the KW for someone's initials but the rest...I'm not getting. I'm adding a close up of the sticker.

I think this thread could do with a clean-up to remove the older chatter and make the info more accessible, but without moving it to the archive so that it continues to grow.
Any objections?

YES! Please don't tinker with it Frank until I've rescued the info to go with all the labels in Murano101 album. I won't have time for at least another week!

I havent seen that particular label before, so cant really say one way or another. Just shows how many types of labels are really out there!

Javier, your rooster shield is the same label as Jim Sapp posted as found on fairy lamps and which Sue mentioned on her sommerso gold and green duck both earlier in this thread. No-one seems to know who it's from yet but I did notice that Campanella also use a chicken in their more recent-looking labels. Could there be a connection? Two glass firms with chickens may be unusual or are the Muranese especially fond of chickens? See this label for comparison: http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/displayimage.php?pos=-1899 |

Hi, I just joined and dont know much about my glass. Ive uploaded a label that I have on a bowl purchased about 6 years ago. Ive put a link to a pic of the bowl here so that someone may be able to identify the age and maker and attribute the label to it. Hope Ive done it okay, I have a couple of others to add.

Hi Selina,
I can't tell which labels on the glass gallery belong to your two bowls. Could you put the labels on here as well as the bowls?
Millions of thanks,
Angela
