This is a collection of twenty-six (26) vintage clear pressed glass seed and
water cups for bird cages.
For those of you looking for specific embossing marks, here is the count of
the number I have for each mark …
USA” - 1
1 USA” - 3
2 USA” - 3
3 USA” - 3
4 USA” - 5
5 USA” - 3
7 USA” - 3
8 USA” - 5
I’m sorry that the overhead lights in the photographs make these look a bit
yellow (I use warm white light bulbs in the light fixtures) but they are clear
glass.
I used them on official American Singer show cages many years ago and they are
still being used in competitions today for those fortunate enough to have them
they look so much more spiffy on a show cage than the modern plastic ones).
They are in good condition, but have been used for decades, so a few may have
some roughness in the round opening on the back that faces into the birdcage.
These have been in storage for a few years, and I just rinsed them out when I
stopped using them. Don’t be surprised if there is a seed hull or residue
inside a few.
