Edit: a bit off-topic, so perhaps the thread needs splitting?

I'll add my admiration as well Keith - nice collection, and it would seem that blue must be the most common of the three colours, I've not been aware of seeing any of the others although they may well appear on ebay for all I know.     I've four so far, so a little way to go to reach your full set.       Odd that Webb didn't produce at least a rummer to complete the set - after all there are two styles of decanter.
