Glass Cup Washington Post World Series Decal

I guess a souvenir piece but wonder if it was made around the time of the actual event or much later.
Also, the glass maker?
Thanks

 

Hi,
Made by the continental can company in the 1970s. Notice the 'safety rim" on the glass.

Safety rim?

 

Hi,
The 'safety rim" on glasses was started by Libby. It is a slight extra rim of glass around the top. It was made to help the thin rims from chipping.

Not sure that I see an applied rim although it does look like that on the pictures. Well, it chipped anyway

 

So, that reinforced rim was introduced by Libbey in the 70’s?

 

Hi,
No it was earlier. I'll have to look when I can not trusting my brain right now.

I’m illiterate in baseball and while on the subject was educating myself, Washington Senators /Nationals/ Minnesota Twins, Walter Johnson ...

So, I’m thinking they just did not randomly printed Washington Post cover with Nationals winning the 1924 World Series.
If made at later time, there must have been an occasion to choose that image?

 

Sorry Gregg for repeating ya - It takes me awhile to type things and I felt embarrassed to see I repeated your reply
Please forgive!

 

Hi Rayo,
No need to forgive. You just confirmed my answer.
