David - is there a picture of 'Cato' anywhere? Might be able to spot one if we know what we are looking for :shock:
Weeeellll... funny you should say that :wink:
I've just got back from Stamford after visiting Maggie and Keith Tyrrell, who are/were avid Chance collectors. They've kindly donated two large boxes of various Chance glass to help me with the book (there, I've said it :lol:) and the remainder can either go to the museum or be sold for charity (Maggie said Acorns was fine). Some very interesting items that I'll be posting over the next few days.
Cato ExampleHowever, Keith has also kindly sent on some photos of a Cato example! If you go to the site and click the 'Cato' link in the menu this will show two shots - you can click on either photo to bring up a larger version. Also there's a photo of two Gossamer dishes; one green and one clear with gilt rim.
Note the gilt rim and included trails on the Cato. Not sure whether the plines were applied onto the glass, but I suspect so.
