Hi Lynn and Vicki,
OLD carnival glass shakers are such a rare thing that when I suggested the page to Dave Doty he thought that it was a great idea. Both carnival glass collectors and shaker collectors know very little about the subject. Having roots in collecting carnival glass collecting and also being a shaker collecotr, it was a natural to do the article. Actually, Ive done an expanded article on this subject for the WVMAG magazine and in our shaker club newsletter,as well as an article for the website Carnival Glass 101. http://carnivalglass101.carnivalheaven.com/
I enjoy doing articles about victorian shakers and have done articles for publications in the US, Canada, and the UK.
Scott

@Scott - Awesome indeed! Do feel free to suggest more web sites for our list to, if you have any.
@Craig - It's gonna take some time to find that one, if we can, that is - LOL Did you try the links above yet?
BTW - anyone have a site with old Fenton pieces? Kathy emailed me an awesome list - but thats gonna take some time to get it all sorted and up. I'll keep at it though! :)

Wow, Scott! I did not know you had a page on Dave Doty's sight. That is wonderful! Being a collector of all things 'carnival' Doty's sight is my bible. :-)

Just to throw my 2 cents in. The tumbler is not a Hobbs piece, I would suspect a little newer.
I noticed the link to Doty's carnival glass site below. Please click the Carnival Glass salt Shakers link on his home page for my page on Carnival Glass shakers!

4 1/4" tall, 3" dia, fire polished base
the top rim the flat part, you can see in the bottom picture is almost panelized like many flat panels put together to form a round,
there was a lable on it saying 1880's and called it hobnail the person I bought it off of it was not there lable he had picked it up at an auction in a lot of glass
