Nice set of atomic glasses (Status:Cordially cool)

Sorry for the short post before I dash off to work.  I found these five cordial (or as we men folk like to call them "double shot") glasses at the Volunteers of America a couple of weeks ago.

I'm pretty certain they were made by the Federal Glass Company, which was located here in Columbus until they shut down in 1979.  Anyway, I'm bummed that there are only five but come-on, dear reader, could you pass these babies by?  I will keep my eyes peeled for an orphan, or orphans, to complete the set.

  2. Very cool. I had a small set of these for a while, they were hard to get rid off.

  3. @Nick- yeah the turqoise and gold work so well and then you also get that shot of red to warm them up.
    @Beccalina- I have soooooo many sets of glasses; some serious pareing down will have to take place.
