This auction is for a vintage Blenko hand blown glass paperweight, #76PG Pig, a Don Shepherd design for the 1976 catalog. Excellent vintage condition. No chips, cracks or repairs. It does have what appears to be tool marks just behind the head and I've tried to capture them in the photos. I believe they are tool marks because the glass is kind of pushed up just a bit at the marks. About 3.25" tall. This is the first #76PG that I'...ve run across, which makes me thing these are harder to find. Even with the tool marks, would make a nice addition to your Blenko barnyard. :)
If you have any questions please ask, but please do not wait until the day the auction ends, as I may not be able to get to your question at the last minute.
I typically ship glass via USPS Priority Mail insured with Delivery Confirmation, but I also offer USPS Parcel Post as a less expensive option. I do an excellent job at packing glass for shipment, even though that adds weight and cost to the shipment. My goal is for it to arrive intact to you! For shipment that are in boxes larger than 1 cubic foot I typically use UPS. I can combine shipment on multiple pieces, but only if I believe it is safe to do so. Sometimes putting too many pieces in one box can increase the risk of breakage.
