    @clementine30 and Gail this applies ONLY to the 8-9 ounce 4" roughly Georgian glasses. Before doing anything else look at the bottom for logos, Hazel Atlas, Anchor Hocking, Cambridge (C in triangle), Mosser an M either separately or in outline of Ohio, Libbey "L" are the ones I know.
    1. How many pentagrams in the top row of elements 10 = Anchor Hocking. If 8 go to next step.
    2. Is the middle row of shapes 4 or 6 sided. If 4 sided they are either Paden City, Cambridge or Mosser. I know of no marke4d PC tumblers and the measurement information is in
    Barnett. Cambridge molds went to Mosser so indistingusible without mark and knowledge of Cambridge pastel colors. As far as I know Mosser only made dark colors and many are marked with an "M".
    3.As many of these were made for the restaurant see if they stack/nest inside each other a space saver and source of nicks on the pattern edge.
    4 Check each group to determine if the mold line runs across the pattern or follow the pattern lines hiding it. Now comes the fun The hidden mold are by the "elegant" makers and the across the pattern mold by machine. Colors and smaller details control. The style of base plate, thickness of the sooth base rim, height and width of the tumbler, the smooth rim etc.
    Frankly unless you get interested for some reason group them by color and height for sale.
