Letters on my glass - DRGM - 'tis a Mystery
pamela:
Gebrauch - use
Muster - depends: can be sample or pattern
gesetzlich - by law
geschützt - in this case copyright
schützen is a verb - to shelter, to protect
the noun is 'Schutz'
also animals and plants may be 'geschützt'
Glen you will find more information regarding DRGM in Pressglas-Korrespondenz - Arnold Becker, Berlin investigated a lot on this subject. Just indicate here issue of interest and I will be happy to try to translate!
Looking very much forward to your pictures!
Glen:
Pamela - many thanks. I understand now that it is a German Patent Design. That makes good sense as it is such an unusual item to find in glass (and a complex mould).
Thank you for your offer to translate (re PK). The problem is I am not really sure where to begin :oops:
The main thing I want to discover is who made the mould. Rindskopf in Czechoslovakia (using a German Registered Patent) or perhaps Brockwitz or another mould maker in Germany (who had registered and held the patent). I am not sure if it is possible to discover that.
Thank you again.

pamela:
Glen, perhaps it is only me who is interested, but would you be so kind to issue a photo of the DRGM item in question please?
Thank you!

Glen:
Pamela - yes I will be doing that shortly. Steve plans to take photos of the item and we will be writing a short feature on it as it is a most unusual piece of glass. We haven't had time to take the photos yet (life is a little bit pressured at the moment) but hope to get it done soon.

Glen:
Pamela - Steve has taken a host of photos of the piece. I hope to resize and post them all in an article about the piece tomorrow. Meanwhile here are two quick images of the letters moulded onto the base of the item.
