Fenton
"Memorabilia" Auction Scheduled for July 27th. . .
Don't miss this fantastic
opportunity
to
acquire
Fenton Art Glass Company "memorabilia"
at auction!
On Monday, July 27, auctioneer Randy Clark will
sell
50 lots (numbers 100 to 149A) consigned by Fenton.
Shown here is a marvelous conversation piece
for any collection! This carefully polished “lump” of Patriot
Red glass from the mid-1970s is unique. Experimental trials
produced Patriot Red glass in varying hues of opaque red, and
yellow streaks were sometimes present as well. This blend of
colors is a great reminder of the difficulties encountered
when seeking to perfect the opaque Patriot Red glass.

Clark's Auction Gallery in Dexter City, Ohio (just off I-77
