Irene - Nice piece of EAPG. One comment re: the US Glass portion of the attribution. Take that with a grain or three of salt. Evidence is pretty sketchy with regard to patterns that were continued after companies joined US Glass in July 1891. All of those companies had a large amount of existing inventory, due to slow sales, which is one of the primary reasons US Glass was formed. While many of these existing patterns appeared in the first few US Glass Co. catalogs it's debatable whether they were actually still being produced or if they were simply selling off existing stock.
There is an early US Glass Co. catalog, viewable online in PDF format, available at the Rakow Library at the Corning Museum. Pleat and Panel does not appear in that catalog.
