Here is a Clear one.  The Pink is tougher to get and if it is perfect no chips or snags you got a nice piece there.

Is that considered Manhattan now?  Back in the day this was the Manhattan pitcher.

The green pitcher is ''Pillar Optic', "Logs" or "Log Cabin" made by Anchor Hocking from 1937 to 1942. Judy

this is what we do know- the pink Ribbed pitcher is not the Manhattan pattern, nor is it the reproduction "park avenue" made by anchor hocking in the the 1980s.
Reference to "Manhattan" is in the Encyclopedia of Depression Glass, by Gene Florence, containing pictures of all items in the Manhattan pattern, including a pitcher.
As the pink color appears to have a slight orange hue in the pictures, we would say it might be a reproduction. we have seen this pattern before (on 1930s pitchers) and falls into the category, (for us), as "unknown".
re the green pitcher- was in the middle of writing about it and saw terrierslave/ Judy's post. she is correct about the green pitcher being the "Pillar Optic" Pattern. the shape is a "no ice lip", 'handled', 'serving' or 'ice tea' pitcher. it had glasses that matched... and is also in the Gene Florence book!
for the pink pitcher we would suggest contacting one of the 1920s-1930s elegant and/or depression glass experts, either on 'replacements' website, or the "rain of glass" website club in oregon.
hope this helps 🙂
