Finds from Auburn show

Note* The close up of the green streaked jar above is not dirty. It's the green embedded in the glass.

Here his close up of blue streaked glass blob that was supposed to be a jar.

Notice the little branch symbol.

Here is a close up of one of the blue streaked jars. Very beautiful cobalt streak.

This is the original way I found the jars and glass blob.

WOW,WOW,WOW!!! what a find. These are # 1387 in the Red Book 9 and it says " Streaked with cobalt blue... 1500 made - 500 released 50-75, streaked with green Not Released to public 75-100, Applied gold finish 750 made 50-75 and last was a Qt cobalt streaked with high kick up unpriced. as for the glass blob looks like a blob of glass prior to blowing. To find a whole case is stupendeous and wish I could afford it. And yes many will line up to buy those!!!! Merry Christmas!

Coreya,

Thank you very much for the information. I'm excited and blessed.
Couldn't have happened at a better time.

I am planning to sell them on Ebay. Do you think I should put the whole case up or just sell one at a time? I do realize that my question is almost impossible to answer, considering all the variables. I'm curious as to what your opinion is?
I am an experienced Ebay seller, but would like as much input as possible to obtain the best results.

To me personaly it would be a shame to break up the case if that did in fact come like that. That being said by breaking it up you would have a better chance of maximizing your dollars not to mention minimizing your shipping difficulty. ( I couldnt begin to dream what the postal service would do to a whole case and how much packing that would require) Still wish I could afford them, especially the blob and a blue one. Keep us posted on your sale because who knows perhaps things might improve. Good luck

Nice find. Paul

I agree with Coreya in that they would do much better all around selling them individually. Few folks would want more than one of each. My mental vision of mailing or shipping them all at once makes me shudder. It will be a lot of work to mail each one seperately but for safety sake I like that scenario best.

Coreya,

Thank you for the information on the jars. I have decided to list them on Ebay separately, excluding one blue streaked jar and the blob of glass, that I will auction as a set.

I suppose I'm making history in a way. How exciting!

I will be starting a new thread today, these jars deserve it.
