Featured Marks on Paperweights

I have 2 paperweights, and I can't decipher the markings. If anyone can identify, I'd sure appreciate it.

First one is large and has a small mark in the center bottom. Kind of looks like the Batman logo to me

Second one is common size and has impressed letters in the bottom. Darned if I can figure them out.

Large:







Second one:

 

Last 3 letters on the 2nd one looks like SON to me with maybe a B? in front of the S

 

@ascot check out Gibson for the 2nd one

 

I can't make anything of your first one, sorry. The second I tried overlaying a bright color and adding some contrast.....looks almost like it could be something like "P GIBSON, BUT am SO totally NOT SURE of that...........I don't see an 'I' and can't really figure out the letters after the 'Gbso'.......

First isn't a mark, it's just how the core has settled.

 

Thanks - good to know. Do you think it's Murano?

 

@cxgirl , is this about the Gibson you were thinking of in your suggestion?

The text above says they also impressed a date near the word Gibson, so I'm not sure since I don't see a date on the paperweight. It also looks like they mostly did carnival glass items.

 

That Gibson link one IS Clearly marked!!

 

But they mention paperweights in your link.

The blocky lettering looks the same in the google search Kiko posted.

 

I think the 1st one is Chinese. Just a guess.

 

yes, that Gibson glass -

they also impressed a date near the word Gibson
not all marks had dates on them

 

Figured out was in front of the G in Gibson. It is a P for Phillip. Charles Gibson's son

 

Yes, I noticed! That's why I decided to include the link.

 

Great that you figured out the letter!

 

Good to know!

 

I think Johnny is right. Decent modern Asian on the stripy.
