Topic: Designs Registered February 4 & 13, 1880 - Rochester Tumbler Co

[Sid]

Hello:

There were three designs registered on February 4, 1880 and February 13, 1880 by the Rochester Tumbler Co. of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.  Does anyone on this list have glass pieces with a registration mark for either of those days?  If so, could you please provide pictures?

I was able to track down a June 4, 1879 registration by the same firm to a bread plate with barley heads and the saying "Give us this day our daily bread".

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I can't help wth the two outstanding registered designs for 1880, but I can show photos of the bread plate with date lozenge for June 4 1879 - Parcel 1.

Corresponds to RD 335845 which was, as you say, registered by the Rochester Tumbler Co., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. The plate is 10 1/2 inches in diameter.

A clear pressed glass oval dish, 30x22x5.5 cm, with the registry date lozenge for 13 February 1880 – Parcel 3, The Rochester Tumbler Co.’s RD 346369 (so based on the same registered design as the salt in Reply #1).

(Permission for the re-use of these images on the GMB granted by Margaret Cassells).

That still leaves the bundle of 2 designs registered by The Rochester Tumbler Co. on 4 February 1880 – Parcel 13, RDs 346020 and 346021.  Unfortunately, The National Archives online summary gives no descriptions of those particular designs.
