I agree which is why I checked both my Morgantown book and my Russel Wright book.  8)

Not in the seventies - I have decanters and glasses from them which are completely anon. The finish and balance should be perfect though.

Wow!
 Thanks for all the input, since you guys have put in so much effort I will get the 'midget steps' out tomorrow and  take some more pics, I can't remember for the life of me what the pontil was like or even if it had one!
Thanks again
Lou*

 I don't know what I was thinking of as these have got a greeny tinge to them!  

As you can see jug has ground and polished pontil, but the glass has no ponti, mark. Just those faint wobbly decreasing circles

Thanks

The blob has the picture of a fish, but I have one with an anchor as well, I think.
