      My best glass compliments are always from you Karen, if you like it I must be doing something right! Thanks my friend

      Phil I'm totally delighted you like this camel, this is one of those rare occasions I got a classic piece at a bargain price. Many thanx for your terrific compliments

      Haha Thomas, thanks for my smile today! Weren't Camel cigs the unfiltered type, they were really strong - someone in my family must have smoked them as I remember the packs

      See Judy, we think alike - I appreciate pretty glass pieces in any form, but for myself, glass animals just have more personality and I like the various colors too. Thanks for the insightful comment & compliments

      Lauren what beautiful imagery, now I can picture this camel on golden desert sands, many thanks for the super compliment

      Malkey so thrilled that you like my camel, thank you very much for the kind words I highly respect your opinion on glass as well my friend

      Really glad you like my camel Eileen, he is pretty stately, with that fancy tasseled saddle looks like he may be the ride for royalty

      Super thrilled to have the love everyone

      Hey Jennie, I was just reading a short article about a special glass camel by Smith this afternoon, written by Tom Felt, who was looking for more examples, he is part of the executive of the West Virginia American Glass Museum and the editor of All About Glass. You mind if I email him your link to this post, he will find it very interesting I think. Thanks for posting.
    11. Newfld Newfld, 6 years ago
      Hi truthordare, yes of course please send the link to this post to the man from the WV American Glass Museum with my compliments, I have relied heavily on catalog reprints from his museum for many of my posts they've been an enormous help. Please tell him I got the info on my Smith camel from a great book called Glass Animals by Dick & Pat Spencer

      Thanks so much for the kind love Mary and truthordare, I appreciate your thoughtfulness
    12. truthordare truthordare, 6 years ago
      Thanks Jenni, sorry for the typos....lol
      They keep creeping in there and I don't capture them all. OK, will email him the link and he will read our comments about this one. His find was a 12 inches long camel, much like yours with the Smith mark from the 1920-30s.
      Your's is more detailed, otherwise very much alike pose and the opening on the back. Regards, Lisa
    13. truthordare truthordare, 6 years ago
      opps, yours does not have an opening on the back, its the darker glass of the bumps that make it look like there is at an angle. :-)
    14. Newfld Newfld, 6 years ago
      You're welcome Lisa, I hope Mr Felt finds this interesting, sounds like his camel is an antique beauty
