ETRURIA (OMN) by Model Flint Glass Company/Findlay-Ohio/Albany-IN (Company Operated: 1888-1899), 1891 Introduced

• AKA: Haley's Comet; Halley’s Comet
NOTE: Albany Glass Museum 2023: This pattern was introduced when Model Flint was in Findlay, OH. Notice there was a solid base version and footed version. Did Findlay make one style and Albany the other? Were both styles made simultaneously? If the mold was recut then the footed version would have had to come first. We know engraving and decorating were done on site at the Albany factory. We believe that there were molds for both versions produced at the same time, or the molds were recut sometime after Model Flint moved to Albany. We are led to believe this by the known footed examples with decoration
