[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 262895, member: 85"]Might be earlier than 1919. Manganese is what makes glass turn purple in the sun. I believe they quit using manganese during WWI, lime soda was substituted. [USER=70]@Cherryhill[/USER] will be able to give better details than me. Although this is made during the EAPG period, it is not EAPG. Pattern glass usually refers to table patterns, not accessories. Again Tom can explain this better. As to who made the glass jar itself, it may not be as important as the fact that it is an early drink dispenser. It's a shame the name doesn't stand out more.[/QUOTE]
