Comments

The pressed glass tumbler has nine round-arch panels on the outside walls that extend about three-quarters of the way to the circular rim.  The outside bottom is molded into a deeply recessed center with a wide foot ring, paneled on the outside and round on the inside.  The clear, colorless glass has a few air bubbles in it.
