feeder
dating to 1894. The feeder is made from
clear glass and is 3 inches tall. The rear of the feeder is embossed HYDE'S
BIRD FOOD SPECIALTIES RD 245288. The registered number dates the feeder
clearly to 1894. The circular opening is sheared. The feeder was made like
this. This is an early attractive piece.
|
|
|
|
|
|
dating between 1890 & 1910. The feeder is made from clear
glass and is 3 inches tall. There is a sunburst pattern to the rear of the

|
embossed with the Hendryx name. That
style came in clear glass and also in milk glass. The opening is ground.
These feeders were very inexpensive when they were new. My 1935 Hendryx
Catalog lists the clear (crystal or flint glass) for seventy cents and the
milk glass (opal) for seventy-five cents, PER DOZEN!! Of course that
was the price to the dealer, not to the public. The milk glass ones must
have been more popular even though they were more expensive, as the clear
ones are much less common. |

Blown in a mold with a delightful twisted knob applied on top, this item has
a rough scarred pontil on the base. With the simple geometric lines on the
sides, it is reminiscent of the blown three mold items of the mid 1800's.
There are no mold marks remaining - likely fire polished out. The opening on
the side is rough ground. This is in very clear flint glass. This piece is
4.5" tall. |

must have had a clip or something. The opening is ground or
polished on the edge. There is a horizontal ribbed pattern with a vertical
bulge in the center. Nice quality glass with lots of "glint." This is
turning purple from age and the second picture is
more accurate. |

The feeder is not marked as to
manufacture and I don't know a thing about its age or origin.a wonderful
clear glass top, rounded on one side, flat on the other, which fits into the
threaded black plastic (could be bakelite but I am not positive) bottom
which slides between the bars of a cage.
