This may or may not be of interest, but Pilgrim Glass #100 catalog from WV shows just a few examples of Pilgrim's Cranberry production over the years & they exported. Also L.G. Wright from 1948 to 1969 had a very significant amount of Cranberry glass in all forms made for them by Fenton. Ken

Yes & if you check eBay (U.S.) & use Pilgrim Cranberry as a search (current & completed auctions) you may run across many older forms of Pilgrim Cranberry not listed in the #100 catalog as they were a prolific (maybe the most prolific) of Cranberry producers in the U.S. (tens of thousands of pieces over the years).
