After trying around a dozen makers,past and present designs I contacted Tudor Crystal and they think it may be one of theirs,still waiting for confirmation, ;D

Keith
I have a small barrel tumbler with cross cutting and I think it could be Tudor as rest the glasses are. Below the rim there was engraved words     ---Drink out of the "Old Blue Un".
Is this a Black Country saying?

Hello Ming;
       How are you? could you post a picture of it? can't say I've ever heard the saying,I'm not so good with 'local lingo' I was born a Brummie only raised as a 'yam-yam'
