I recently purchased this vase and I'm trying to figure out who made it. Does anyone know? It has a Mt. Washington or Smith Brothers type look, but I'm not sure. I have a Mt. Washington book and it's not in the book I have.
It's a three-paneled milk glass vase with pictures of three prominent Scottish Rite Masons. The first panel pictures George Wilberforce McCandles, 32nd Degree, Commander-in-Chief, Pittsburgh, September 18-21, 1916. Second panel, Ill. Barton Smith, 33rd Degree, M.P. Sovereign Grand Commander, Supreme Council 33rd Degree. Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, Northern Masonic Jurisdiction, USA. Third panel, Ill. James Isaac Buchanan, 33rd Degree, Deputy for Pennsylvania. All the pictures are brown transfers with brown lettering on a yellow vase shaded to white in panels and stands 8 inches overall.
