I have seen so many of them about recently that I have wondered if someone is producing recent repro versions of them!  Perhaps other watchers wondered the same, which is why they didn't bid?  :huh:

There is one in clear glass running now - 320195742542
This one has the victorian lozenge mark identifying year of make.

Then there are a couple of non-marked amber ones here - 370001317035
A green unmarked one here - 190182286972

And there are the Summit Glass ones which are similar in shape but with a carnival finish.

Are these common?
They seem to pop up quite often in my paperweight searches, and I'm usually tempted to bid  ;)

With that many current, they must be common. More likely to be new too.

One day I shall come back. Yes, I shall come back. Until then, there must be no regrets, no tears, no anxieties. Just go forward in all your beliefs and prove to me that I am not mistaken in mine. William Hartnell
