<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TheOLdGuy, post: 92448, member: 878&quot;]Back for a quick post. My computer is acting up again. Can&#039;t link you to a video showing how to MARVEL while glass blowing. That&#039;s often used to describe how you get the colors mixed with similar results in &quot;gathering&quot; glass into a mould. Just search MARVEL IN GLASS BLOWING. I&#039;ve never witnessed that in person but have seen several in mould making.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was reminded that slag glass is also called &quot;end of day.&quot; That&#039;s because when the workmen were finished with the regular work they took leftover colors from different furnaces and put them all into one furnace. NOT MIXED or stirred, just poured in. Some think that&#039;s how slag glass was started.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s one of Imperials with similar to yours, Mak. Don&#039;t take that price as realistic, though. I think that seller is reaching very high.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fabulous-True-Retro-1950s-60s-Imperial-Purple-Slag-End-of-Day-7-Glass-Ashtray-/281463987709" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fabulous-True-Retro-1950s-60s-Imperial-Purple-Slag-End-of-Day-7-Glass-Ashtray-/281463987709" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fabulous-True-Retro-1950s-60s-Imperial-Purple-Slag-End-of-Day-7-Glass-Ashtray-/281463987709</a>?</p><p><br /></p><p>When I get younger - <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; - I may be able to decipher the picture of the base above.
