<p>[QUOTE="Cherryhill, post: 133971, member: 70"]I dont' see a problem. While the black light is not a guarantee, if the question is "are these Imperial or Heisey?" The answer is "Yes" but no one cares anymore. The color (above) is correct for lime glass, which Heisey used for their figurines. There is no way to know if the Ponies Imperial sold were old stock from Heisey or ones they themselves made. Only Heisey/Imperial made the ones above, Paden City's were at least twice as tall. No others made ponies that look like this. </p><p><br /></p><p>The Diamond H trade mark was stamped into the mold. As the mold wore and was polished, the marks became fainter until they were re-stamped. Sometimes they didn't get re-stamped as soon as they should and many pieces were made without the marks. </p><p><br /></p><p>The <i>Vogel Five</i> monograph from the Museum of American Glass in West Virginia pretty well tells all that is known about Heisey's figurines.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
