Description

These,highly collectible, Anchor Hocking "Manhattan" 10 ounce, pink depression glass tumblers are a classic example of Art Deco design from the late Depression era. Produced by the Anchor Hocking Glass Company in the United States primarily between 1938 and 1943, the Manhattan pattern is celebrated for its distinctive horizontal concentric ribs and unique "bubble" footed base. While many depression glass patterns were delicate and ornate, Manhattan stood out with its heavier, machine-made construction and modern, geometric aesthetic that remains popular with collectors today. The "pink" color of this line is often described as a soft, pale, or peach-toned pink, which was more difficult to produce than the common clear (crystal) version, making pink pieces like this 10 oz tumbler more sought after by enthusiasts. It is important for collectors to note that Anchor Hocking later released a similar look-alike pattern in the 1980s called "Park Avenue," but the original Manhattan pieces, like this one, are easily identified by their characteristic bubble foot, whereas the later reproductions feature a plain base. While a few pieces show slight signs of their nearly 90-year history, they remain a stunning and functional addition to any Art Deco collection. Even after nearly 90 years, they are in good condition. FREE SHIPPING!

  1. Shipped promptly and all pieces are accounted for, as was advertised, but is always a gamble on board games, so definitely thank you so much to this seller! Game box shows its age a little bit, but board and pieces are in great condition. Can't wait to get some friends together and give this one a go!
