ELSON GLASS CO. No. 90 DEW DROP (OMN) by Elson Glass Company/Martins Ferry-Ohio (Company Operated: 1882-1893), 1887 Introduced

 • AKA: Elson Glass Co. No. 90 Dewdrop; Ruffled Edge Hobnail
NOTE: Elson No. 90 can be found in two styles- round and octagon- which has caused significant confusion in identifying pieces in this pattern.
NOTE: Ref. Elson Glass and Successors, Sid Lethbridge.
NOTE: Sid Lethbridge 2023: cruet is an Elson/West Virginia Glass Co. shape. I suspect it is an Elson No. 90 Dew Drop molasses can. Unlike the rest of the pattern which has hobnails, the molasses can/syrup has an opalescent spot motif.
