Tarzan responds again: Remember the NCC in your will, and Remember the NCC in your will, and Dear Charlene, help insure the long-term viability of the Here is some more information. This is the #3126 stemware line which National Museum of Cambridge Glass. had nine different stems and seven tumblers of various sizes. Stems Join the Heritage Society; came in 1oz (Cordial and Brandy), 2 1/2 oz Wine, 3oz Cocktail, 4 1/2 oz see the article on page 1 for details. Oyster Cocktail, 4 1/2oz Claret, 7oz low and tall Sherbets and a 9oz Goblet. Tumblers came in 13oz, 12oz (low and tall), 10oz, 9oz, 5oz and 2 1/2 oz.

I sent your pictures to our stemware expert to make sure that Cambridge did add the bands, I was reasonably sure they did but best to be sure. My expert confirmed what I had thought. He also stated that while he did not have any specific, direct reference that Cambridge had applied the Platinum bands, he knows they did them for most of the lines and said there is no reason to believe Cambridge did not apply these Platinum bands.

This line was in production from 1931 to the mid 1940’s. If Cambridge did not add the bands then they would have sold the blanks Nancy & Jim Finley (Sedalia, MO) have put their beautiful Amber to a decorating company.
