    I found this little 4" red glass today. I am finding there is a lot of this out there so there must have been some information about the company making these?
    It is etched Ocean Grove 1904 and on the other side is Carrie.

    I have an Atlantic City one, even smaller, marked Sophie. They were a hot souvenir for a while, like stretched pennies.

    These were often engraved on site - you go to an event, or the seaside for example, buy one and have it dedicated at the time. In the UK there are still some places that do this. As such the engraver will be small scale and buying the glassware in from various places, this makes it very difficult to track down a maker unless the glass is a specific pattern made by a referenced maker.

    Probably easier to find out who made the engraving equipment than the glass; there were fewer factories making those.
