   Speaking of Fenten Glass I have a question, maybe someone can answer. Since   
   apparently Fenten wasnt marked until 74 (Thats what it says on thier   
   website) how DO YOU tell whats really Fenten and not pre 74? I also read   
   somewhere that Fenten glass marked within an oval showed that it was cast   
   from molds bought from other companies and not original Fenten made molds. I   
   emailed Fenten and recieved the reply that this was not true, that all   
   Fenten Glass is made with Fentens own molds. So, pre Fenten marking, how do   
   you tell real when the label has been removed, which is usually.
