Circular Letters 31 and 41 - Covered Swan

Issue No. 192 - April 1989

Covered Swan EDITOR'S NOTE: These two Circular Letter's are being shared with us by Carl Beynon. They are of special interest, at this time, since the crystal covered swan (shown here) sold at this year's Auction, for $850. Our Museum owns one of these swans in moonlight blue. As you can see, they originally sold wholesale for $30 per dozen.

                     #1492 SWAN WITH COVER

CIRCULAR LETTER #31
TO ALL AGENTS:

   We   have  sent  you sample  in  Moonlight of our #1492
8½" Swan, with cover.

   It has been suggested that the Swan with cover would 
make an excellent Candy Box or Bon Bon, so we have changed
the design of the Swan and have made a cover for it.

   This will be made in Crystal and Moonlight and the price
is $30.00 per dozen list, subject to regular discounts.

   Carry one of these new samples and show it to the trade 
and we hope you will be able to send us some nice business
for the same.

                                           Yours truly,
                               THE CAMBRIDGE GLASS COMPANY
