Is it worth $300 or $25?
« on: November 29, 2008, 03:41:43 AM »
This reamer looks like the one of the reamers on page 43, 6th edition Kitchen Glassware of the Depression Years by Florence.  There is quite a difference in values.  Can anyone help me decide which one, if any of them, is my reamer?

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

Thanks for trying, Pam.  I wish the pictures were clearer.

Looks to me like Federal Kitchenware 2520 Lemon Reamer.  Is that an option?  I don't have that book.  My ref. is Weatherman's Colored Glass of the Depression Era 2, pg. 100.

Yes that is one of the options, but the lines on the side of mine seem to be closer together and have a space in between a grouping.  That's why I wasn't sure about that one.

In Weatherman, which shows original catalog images, there is a space between sets of ribs and the ribs are close together, like yours.  Looks to me like an exact match.

Florence did make mistakes.

Thanks again.  I couldn't afford to buy both of the books, so I choose Florence.  I hope that someday I can increase my ID book collection.
