Cathy B:
Hi David, pinkspoons, tramonto,

David, thanks for clarifying that!

I'm just wondering whether, during those off years that they didn't appear in the catalogues, does it mean for certain that they weren't pressed, or just that they didn't get around to photographing them?

Cathy.

In 1970 and 1971 there were only supplements to the catalogues produced. Anything new in other words. New price lists were available every year to keep up to date. The catalogues and price lists were for the trade only.

The bark range of items were all by Geoffrey Baxter. Certainly not Powell. Harry Powell died in 1922!!!

:oops:   Oops, thanks for clearing up my little blunder.....I looked in a book tonight and realised I'd asked a dumb question about Powell!  Does this mean that my red vase had quite a short production run then...two years?  If that is short by glass standards?

Thanks for all the very helpful replies here.

Tramonto

Frank:
Two years is not short for some types of glass. Bottle design can go 50+ years or more. Paperweights weeks or months or endlessly.

Anonymous:
In Whitefriars terms that is quite short. Only the colour run was short the vase went on for a while.

Vidfletch :D
