Hi all
Its worth adding that at its peak the Caithness collectors club alone numbered over 10,000 registered collectors so although I agree that a "limited" edition of 2500 is laughable - that is only one PW for every 4 members of its collectors club which doesn't include any sales from other outlets.
Caithness dealt in big numbers...... at its peak in Perth they had 18 chairs and an output of around 150,000 paperweights per year employing about 160 on the glass side excluding the shop and cafe.
Best regards
Derek
