    Gotta love a good dog and these three are pretty appealing.
    All made by Marti Glass Japan, probably 1960s.
    I think they show a real sense of humour and probably from the same designer - if only I knew who.

    I have seen the thermometer dachshund sans thermometer but for some strange reason the thermometer feels good to me. Maybe it's that whole 1960s kitsch thing I get into!

    All are around 20cm long (that's 8in for non metricated).

      These are great. I had a look on the internet and these guys are virtually unheard of. Not one picture of anything relating to Marti Glass that came up on google except a few postings from this site!

      Thanks Marty, Kyra, Budek and Rick for the love and comments!

      Sue that's a pic of my old girl, not my everyday ride. ta.

      Hamish I sometimes wonder if outside Japan I am alone in the sea of Japanese glass! Thanks - here is Marti's website (will need translation):
