This platter was made by Macbeth Evans Before WWII. It has a low uranium content but definitely glows proving it to be pre war.The US banned uranium use in glass during the war.

Love the glow!
Hey HW... I think someone told me once, but I am trying to buy a black light... Do you have a recommendation. Preferably a cheap one!!
Thanks walksoftly,Doc and kerry !!! I got some at Walmart for around ten bucks that work well.Spencers also has them. If you want a portable one for hunting check Ebay.This is the one I use.

I like this portable one... Will I be able to take cool pictures with it? Or is it better to get a stationary one? Thanks for the info...
stunning Hedgewalker:)
That glow sure is beautiful David. Love it!
Great platter hedgewalker. I had one handed down to me but definitely not as old or as nice as this one.
Thanks junkman,petey,Sean,vet and Aim !!!! Just curious Aim...How did you know my name ?
your very very welcome Hedgewalker:)
I'm a stalker like that. Oopsy, I mean stinker!
Honestly... it was a typo.
I thought walksoftly posted it.
I tried to play it off as if I didn't mess up, but ya kinda called me out on it. :^P
Hey Phil...Check out comment 3.
I always did want a stalker ; )
You didn't mess up you're Psychic my name is Dave (Among others )
No need to be sorry Phil,I always take it while out hunting.Some pieces are very hard to tell without the light.
Hi Dave :-))
Yay, I finally have permission to stalk. Nice to meet you.... the other David :^D
Hi Dave ! Nice to meet you also Aim !!
Hedge I've been holding my thoughts, pretty hard for me, lol. To many one-liner could have been dropped today. :-)
Never Dave, always David. :-)
Ok, so than do we have...
Hedgewalker - Dave
walksoftly - David
Hi David ;) Yeah kerry I know what you're sayin !!!
And Dave pw-collector, I've always address them as Hedge, David and Dave, unless all three have been close in their visits, then Hedge, Pw-collector and walksoftly.
I also answer to Greenman.
I hope that's bc you're good with lawns and not from picking o.O LoL
Oh there's another missed opportunity, ;-)
Okay, I'll be nice and quit thinking the thoughts I've been having
I'm always pickin something green...glass of course what were YOU thinkin ?!
Don't hold back kerry,it's all in fun !
Good comeback, and The answer on the other posting, if count was that high, wouldn't need the blacklight.
Nice to see you're back Hedge/Greenman/ Dave, missed conversing with you.
Thanks kerry ! And if the count was that high HS would definitely be knockin !!
Great piece hedge ! Will just call ya hedge I like that :-) I never knew your name after all these years but prefer we are who we use as posting name . I need a black light too . beautiful
Hi Phil David !!!!
Thanks Mani!!! I'm partial to Hedge also.
Hedge it is then, extra names just confuse me.
This conversation reminds me of family gathering at the inlaws, 3 sisters, two married Davids & one married a Dave.
I worked at a garden center once and out of about 10 employees 5 of us were Daves,one Jon and the others female.I became Hippy Dave.
Okay that tops my story, Hippy Dave, you do answer to a lot of names:-)
Okay, from now on I'll address each and all as screen name, well maybe not all the time. If we start in and what people call us, I don't think the CW Board would approve of most of mine
Split personality...or maybe frayed !
Just throw in a couple of %^* and you'll be OK kerry .
Do you remember the movie or book Svbil, well she was nothing on the many faces of Kerry LOL
That's what they tell be at the home....
You guys are so funny. I actually have a chart with real names/emails and some addresses...and I still get confused! I also prefer our CW names, seems more super hero like.
Referred to as a super hero (well like) and gained a stalker all in one night ...Thanks Amber !
That's a great prospective AmberRose, like that notion, thanks for sharing that inside
"insight", can't type either, better quit for the night. Good night all and wish you and yours a wonderful evening and a great week ahead.
LEDs don't show white uranium glass or custard glass well at all.That is the only downfall to the LED blacklights.They do very well on green and yellow uranium glass.
Didn't know that, my wife may be passing up some of the glow in her searches.
Pic four shows this piece and a yellow satin glass piece using LED blacklight.
So a handheld fluorescent may be the better choice to go hunting with then.
Thanks for the learn something new today, Hedge.
I choose the LED for hunting because it does well in cases.And once you've trained your eye to the reaction of custard glass to LED you can still spot it.I try not to draw attention to pieces being uranium glass,once the shop learns about it the prices rise and it is hard to get a deal.
People get very curious when you go around shining a flashlight. My wife was crouched down scanning the bottom shelves in a thrift shop one day when she realized a little girl was crouched down beside her trying to see what she was doing. lol
Awww how cute
I'm really enjoying your site here and all the uranium glass .. Would like to try it once ,, maybe this winter, when all my chores are done ...lol
thanks for posting it ...
@ Aim, cute & funny :-)
Lovely Hedgewalker. These are beautiful aren't they. I have a uranium MacBeth Evans bowl, it was what begun my love affair with glass. here's mine..
