You say glass tumblers so does that mean you have more than one?
Are these pictures of one glass?
Or are there several different glasses/pictures - like a set of 4-8?

• I have never seen a glass like this but it resembles the "prizes" or special glasses that fast food restaurants gave away several years ago.
• It is possible it was some sort of special at Thanksgiving time as this is clearly a Pilgrim family.
• I believe you may be able to get some answers if you post pictures on the eBay community board.
• You will have to be an eBay member to post your question but it is easy to post but be sure you are very clear in your description and submit very good pictures (these are good pictures but you need to state if this is just one glass or several glasses) and also the size of the glass.
• Also provide any information you have regarding the provenance of the glasses.
• I will provide a link but if there is a problem connecting then you can Google eBay community board Pottery, Glass & Porcelain.

I have 2 they are identical. The pictures are all from one glass.
Thank you for the link. I am an eBay memeber.

These are really cute. I have had several sets that were similar and these came from various outlets - even Dairy Queen! - so I hope you can find out more about them. I like it that the scene is all on one glass.

Hi. I found multiple listings for these on an archive ebay site I frequent, but for some reason can't share the posts (I guess because you have to have a user name and log in to do so). The listing says it was a set of 4 from the 1970s. The seller said he/she was not able to find a like version on Ebay or Etsy.

From what I can see they never sold in the 20-25.00 range (were listed multiple times).

The seller didn't know who produced them and I have no memory of these...although they look so familiar. I used to be a huge fan of character glasses from the 50s through the 70s, then I lost interest because they would break too easily and I would get sad.

These remind me of a gas station or jelly glass, but those are usually very well known types and typically were marked with the company since they doubled as promo items.

There is an outside chance replacements.com could ID them exactly, but I have had no luck with them on this type of item...they are great for good china and silver, but this type of stuff is hit or miss.

If I were to sell, I would try them in the mid teens, with a buy it now of best offer and let the buyer offer what he/she wants.

Maybe someone with a better memory will be able to know exactly who produced them. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much. I have googled them with every name variation I could think of with no luck.
