Found this pretty glass dish today. Only noticed the Fostoria mark when I got home. Is this cut glass or pressed glass? Any idea as to the pattern and year it was made?
Fostoria Heritage celery dish, acid marked. | ||

maybe Heritage:

with that acid mark it could not be an original Rosby, which is why I suggested Heritage, as a reissue line.
So the original Rosby was earlier, and Fostoria produced it again later on?
yes, Fostoria was know to reissue their EAPG with new names. For instance I have a post here about Fostoria 1641 Sovereign, which was reintroduced as Centennial II. The original 1641 was only made in unmarked clear glass (crystal in USA). whereas the reissued Centennial II was issued in ruby and lead crystal with the acid mark. Unfortunately "R" may often misclassify these types of patterns.
Thank you for a mystery well solved.
