Welcome Thank you for visiting! This is a really beautiful souvenir of the 1893 Columbian Exposition, better known to most of us as the Chicago World's Fair. This was a major historical event. It presaged the the future of America as a consumerist society, putting on show the power and potential of electricity, and introduced numerous firsts including the first "theme park", the first elevated internal railroad system, and the first belly dancers in America. Numerous products and brands were introduced including Aunt Jemima, Cracker Jack, Cream of Wheat, Quaker Oats, rolled pennies, the Ferris wheel, hamburgers and picture postcards among others. This ruby glass cup was hand-etched with "World's Fair 1893" and "Louise" along with a flower and its associated leaves. The cup has no significant wear or scratches, but has a crack top-to-bottom of the vessel alongside the handle. I have included a photo of the crack. The cup is about two and three-quarters inches in height and three inches in maximum diameter, with the handle extending another inch. Feel free to ask questions before you bid. After you receive your item let me know if you are not satisfied in any way. You have seven days to return your item for a refund of your purchase price plus the return shipping fee. I accept PayPal, money orders, and personal checks. Help me save you money on shipping If you purchase multiple items from me, I will calculate combined shipping when I send your invoice. If you pay before receiving an invoice from me your shipping may not be correct. (Due to the variety of items in my store I am unable to automatically set a combined shipping rule with eBayâe(tm)s calculator.) I use fresh boxes, bubble wrap, corrugated protection and loose fill to protect your items. I ship soon after receiving payment which requires frequent trips to the post office. These factors require me to charge a moderate handling fee which may vary depending on the size of your package. You can view my handling fees in âeoeStore Policiesâe at the top of my store page. I ship the majority of my packages by priority mail with USPS and will ship with UPS for large and heavy packages. Let me know when you need your item faster or if you would prefer Parcel Post.
