I thought I had id these whiskey tumblers before but now lost it.

Etched retriever in high grass, signed "BANKS" on the lower back in the etch.

Measure 3 1/2" high and 2 1/2" at the top rim.

Nice needle etch. Heisey did some but I think these are different. Banks may be the decorator.

Hi George,

Thanks for your input.

These are a plate etch, like the Elegant Depression companies did.

Yes, Banks is the wildlife artist, I just can't put a finger on his work or who adapted these to 1940's  / 1950's (?) glassware.
