Hi, Barbara and everyone.  Here are some of the things that were in the box I found that I'm pretty sure were at one time food packaging...

And this cute AH set...

I have only identified the Grapette Elephant so far, and I'm working on the glasses now.  So much fun!

It would be fun for all of us if you could post a picture or two of the other glasses. I wish I could offer more right now.

Yes, that's the trouble I'm running into.  All the other glasses I found in that box were sold with food, so I'm trying to determine why these were included.  Curiouser and curiouser.  Thank you for your response, Miss Barbara!  :)

Hi. Popeye Brand peanut butter used glass mugs, but they didn't have this shape. The struggle is that until glassware is found with a label, it's difficult to determine if the piece was used to package food.

Hi, and thank you for accepting me into the Group!  I've been reading and enjoying posts for a while and there is so much knowledge here! 

Recently my husband and I acquired a rather old household estate and there is so much that we've never seen before.  Among some old jelly jars and peanut butter glasses were these.  I can't find any information on them, but they do resemble some pedestal glasses I found online.  I cannot find the mugs, though.  Any information from anyone here?

I look forward to visiting often and helping out when I can!

Again, thanks for having us!

Shirl & AJ

Lid for Breakstone Sour Cream - you would have removed the lid, eaten the sour cream, and acquired a glass "for free." This is from the 1960s and followed the success of Swanky Swigs.

Anyone have some Christmas themed Swanky swigs to post in this group?

Would love any information on these Wizzard of Oz Tumblers.

Can't seem to find any history.

They are 5 inches tall by Libbey Duratuff
