John — Walsh were using at least three different greens at this time. A pale green, a UV-reactive variable pale to medium green, and a dark bottle green. They're all in the books. It just shows how important it is to find several aspects that point to one maker, as relying on just one can lead you into trouble.
It was all so much easier a decade or more ago. If it was iridised it was Loetz, if it had a green streak it was Stuart, "fine" glass was Whitefriars (or Powell if you wanted to charge more), and everything else was either Webb or, if you wanted to show your skill in spelling, Stevens & Williams. Do you remember the "expert" committee that used to come round at the beginning of the National? I can recall them pronouncing on a naturalistic epergne that I had — obviously Stuart, because of the green streak — with a Walsh registration number stamped into the base!
Happy memories.
