eBay currently has a couple of interesting collections on offer that I’ll highlight in a second post, but first I wanted to thank Ed Sipos (azsaloon<\/em> on eBay) for giving me a heads up on a rare enamel transfer glass that he’d picked up in a “best offer<\/em>” back in August of last year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original listing page is no longer available, but here’s a snibbet:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The glass was listed by collectiblesbytim<\/a><\/em> and was among 25 or so glasses that the seller dropped into the ‘Bay in the recent months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These enamel transfer glasses are super-rare and super-desirable to hardcore collectors. I’ve seen the Old Blackthorn only four times now and have yet to add one to my own collection. The example in the database<\/a> is (was ?) owned by Kevin Wade, plus I’ve seen 3 more offered on eBay (including the one featured here).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The end-of-auction page showed that Ed picked it up for $99.99 or less, which is fifteen-fold less than a previous example sold for in open auction. Nice<\/em> find and thanks to Ed for getting in touch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
