Anyone love Mid-Century Modern...

I am selling my Federal Glass Amoeba/Boomerang Glass Collection on Ebay.   If you know anyone who collects this glass or who might want to start send them here... It is a 28 piece collection.

Description:

The drinking glass pattern, popularly called, amoeba or boomerang, was actually called Contemporary by the Federal Glass Company. It also had the identification number of 4695. This was so the pattern was not confused with another Federal Glass pattern called Contemporary. The drinking glasses in the Contemporary pattern were marketed as - Federal's Heavy Bottomed Tumblers. These mid century modern amoeba boomerang drinking glasses or had 22 Kt gold integrated into their amoeba, which over the years has the gold accents wash off fairly easily.

There were a number of different styles of drinking glasses offered in this pattern and each pattern had a matching pitcher that could be purchased. The names of the different kind of tumblers included: Pilsner, Heavy Bottomed Tumbler, Heavy Bottomed Double Old Fashion, Heavy Bottomed Old Fashion, Heavy Bottomed Sky Ball, and Heavy Bottomed Jigger.

Here is a review of the collection and condition of each glass:

5 – Pilsner Glasses; these are the glasses in the worst condition in my collection. There is noticeable gold missing from the boomerangs; no chips or cracks.

9 – Heavy Bottom Tumblers. 4 of these glasses still have the original Federal Glass Sticker on them and have never been used. The rest of the glasses are in almost perfect condition with very little gold missing; no chips or cracks.

4 - Heavy Bottomed Double Old Fashion. These glasses are in almost perfect condition with very little gold missing; no chips or cracks.

5 - Heavy Bottomed Old Fashion. Three of these glasses are in almost perfect condition with very little gold missing, two have some gold missing; no chips or cracks.

5 - Heavy Bottomed Jigger. The shot… these are the hardest to come by of these glasses. All of my jiggers are in almost perfect condition with very little gold missing; no chips or cracks.

My collection does not include any Heavy Bottomed Sky Ball glasses.
