[QUOTE="msgood2shoe, post: 348981, member: 69"]I tried to figure out when this might have been designed or produced. Pina doesn't give a catalog number and since she produced catalog reprint books (at least 3) and her books cover the time period Shepherd was the Blenko designer, I had a feeling it wasn't in a catalog. I did look through the catalog reprints just to be sure, and it didn't appear in them. I tried to figure out when the one you posted might have been made, but the color of it doesn't really look like any of the purples Blenko produced while Shepherd was the designer. Turquoise was produced when he was the designer, but only until 1979. I got curious about the Blenko sticker, so I googled the auction info. Unfortunately, the sticker isn't shown. I was surprised to see that it only sold for 95 pounds. IMHO that seems like a bargain for a piece like this. I'm sorry it wasn't a decanter that you could include in your book. Good luck with it.[/QUOTE]
