Help to Identify Glass Rabbit Mold - ID = JH Millstein

I have a 6" tall heavy glass mold in the shape of a rabbit.  Can anyone identify the maker?

Thanks.

In the US these are candy containers many of which were made by a company in Jeanette PA, but can't remember the name. Ken

This for the information.  I found out it was made by JH Millstein.  I appreciate the help.

The Eikelberner/Agadjanian book on candy containers indicates (item 618 Peter Rabbit) that this piece dates from the early 1950s on Millstein sales sheets.

Hi there....Neat.  Finally something I would have guessed correctly at, but was not on here soon enough (lol).  I too had posted a Glass Candy *Car* on here.  Here is the link:  http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,18085.0.html
