<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wlwhittier, post: 9559588, member: 76316&quot;]My first exposure to the shape was in a Tavern near San Diego in 1963. Beer was served in it; it held a quart, an&#039; was called a Schooner, an&#039; sold for 60 cents a pop...I consumed perhaps more than my share, y&#039;know?</p><p><br /></p><p>This one holds a comfortable 10 (US fluid) ounces. 5 3/4&quot; high, 3 1/4&quot; rim diameter, 3 1/8&quot; foot diameter. The bulge in the stem (is that correctly a knop?) is 1.2&quot; diameter. The vessel weighs 12 1/2 ounces; it is not UV reactive.</p><p><br /></p><p>The foot has considerable wear, but it&#039;s all in a very narrow ring at the OD of the concave base; hard to get a good pic. The foot an&#039; bowl have indications of being blown, but there are no other craft-artifacts, including mold seams or pontil, to be seen on it. The rim is probably flame-smoothed, but it&#039;s not &quot;Safe-Rim&quot;. The interior has a haze that doesn&#039;t yield to moderate cleaning methods an&#039; materials. Pic 2 shows a bit of color, but it&#039;s not in the glass.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s been stored for decades; I have no clue where or when I acquired it. I believe, after today&#039;s examination, it may have some age...but that&#039;s just a hunch. I&#039;m eager to hear what y&#039;all think about it. Thanks for lookin&#039;!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]457105[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]457106[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]457107[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]457108[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]457109[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]457111[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
