New Discoveries since AGCP

Please send photographs and information about new finds and variants to Dave McDonnell

John Bilane developed a system of numbering new discoveries after 1948. New designs and rim patterns were identified by an "X" in the plates number. Variations in size, shape, or otherwise by a "V". Size differences of 1/16" more or less, from that listed in the book, "American Glass Cup Plates" by Ruth Webb Lee and James H. Rose, have not been recorded as they are not considered new discoveries. Dolores Bowler had assumed the responsibility for updating and assigning these new numbers, for which we are very grateful. Dolores has requested that Dave McDonnell now accepted responsibility for new number assignments. With the assistance of Bill Pearson and Charlie Tucker we are attempting to describe and photograph all new discoveries on this page. If you are able to provide information that we are missing, it would be greatly appreciated.
We are also very grateful to Arch Doty, Dolores Bowler, Chas MacKenzie, Charlie Tucker, Jeff LeBlanc and Matt Hardesy for their photos and written text about variations found in their collections.
