<p>[QUOTE="Lark, post: 9723455, member: 13605"]I bet Blenko is showing up because the collectors are going into nursing homes and the heirs have no clue or no desire for glass. A "younger " generation is probably working in the Goodwills and they to not know what to look for. I feel I have a pretty good eye, as obviously members of this site have, based on their finds. I can usually look across a room and spot a promising item based on the glaze or the other quality clues. Same with jewelry. That takes experience . I have tried to pass on how to spot good items with some of my 30-40 year old friends. They are starting at ground Zero in most cases. Most of them never grew up around this stuff.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
