Very interesting Norman. 

Just one thing though, the divided bowl at the bottom of the first page - have you had it positively identified as a Vladislav Urban design for Rosice?  The only reason I ask is because I've had very similar (identical apart from the divider in the middle) bowls and ashtrays in the past, one with a yellow tinge to the orbs along the base and one without, and I've always believed them to be by Waltherglas (German production).

:huh:

Well done Norman its a very usefull site and very well researched.. you will make some mistakes with attributions but I'm sure the kind members of this board will point them out to you. Its good to see new reference sites like yours as it gives me and others the chance to double check our acquisitions. Regards Paul.

Hi there Paul
thank u so much for the encouragement and would expressly like to make the point that all of the images loaded are of my own collection and researched through Marcus"s book ...art before industry.....Jindrich...hi sklo lo sklo and the most talented and kind members of this board.
In visiting my webpage one will find the revelant links to websites and books also the many blogs where i have mentioned these sources.
I guess thats why we buy these books ...to educate ourselves and in turn share that with all collectors.
Best wishes to all.

P.S. this is simply a photogallery of my personal collection.

Absolutely great page Norman  :hiclp:

Don´t you want to supply some Sklo Union pictures with atribution to enhance your Reference guide?  
I have sold about 70 Sklo Union pieces at eBay and I have pictures with attribution ready to be displayed.
Or better, can you open the option to insert pictures for registered users?

Could you add also the pattern numbers?

Just a small bug fixing:
Frantisek Vizner bubble vase for Hermanova 1962... - no - it is Urban pattern 20048
Frantisek Vizner...colorless candle light...Rudolfova 1961  - no - Pánek ???
Frantisek Vizner...colorless vase with striped pattern...for Rudolfova 1965  - no - Hanuš???
Frantisek Vizner Round dish in hobnail design....sklo union.1966..... no - ???????
 
Congratulation and thanks
Jindrich

Hi Jindrich,
thank u for looking and showing where i have gone wrong...really appreciate all the help.
The reson i have set up this guide is that i was thrilled in reading Art before Industry and found a good source here....but now somewhat dried up.....lol i guess i have bought most of it...!!
have over 60 crates of the stuff with lots and lots of duplicates...hoping that one day the prices will be different as to what i am paying...in the longhaul as they say.
Thanking u yes my pictures are available and just let me know what u would like to do as i feel they really belong to all glass collectors and really i am an old bean....so am glad to share them also the glass message board has been a great educator with so many kind people and wherever i can return a favour it is there ...just for the asking!
Let me know pls....and would be great promoting Sklo Union wherever.Please remember none of my goodies are for sale merely as a hobby and reference guide.
best
norman
