Can someone tell me about these glasses?

Hi,
I have been collecting these glasses for years. I started with two I picked up at a thrift shop while looking for dishes to place on my Thanksgiving dinner table. Loved them and decided to look for more. I think I've got 25 to my collection now. I have no idea who made them, what they are called and if they are worth anything. Also....if they are vintage, are there repros floating around out there? How can you tell? Some of mine are cloudy and some are crystal clear. I'd love some info.

Hi Lisa; This is one of Anchor Hockings patterns and is called "Wexford"
It has many pieces and was marketed in sets like, breakfast sets,
beverage sets and all kinds of stems and glasses. They stopped making it in 1998.
It's very plentiful and you can still find it at garage sales and thrift stores by
the handful.

Here's a link to the stuff on Rubylane.com

The prices are a little inflated!
I don't have any in my shop right now but I'm sure you can find the pieces you want.
Visit my shop if you like. Make me an offer.

They look like jelly glasses we got in the 50s. Same pattern at least but I think yours have taller stems than ours did. I don't think we kept them. I think my mother used to root violet leaves in them.
