Has anyone heard of Blue Del? How old are these?

There is a listing on eBay where the seller reports Blue Del was made in West Virginia in the 1940s-50s, and that the glass blowers moved to Blenko.   However, there is no attribution for the information.

Thank you both for your help & info. I've messaged the Blenko Glass Co. asking them...they have "dimple" glasses for sale that resemble these & are only 28 miles from Huntington.
