Lovely as usual Marie..welcome to C.W. Nice to see you on here…Penny
Hi, Inky! And... Penny! Thank you, yes, it´s lovely! And thank you for the welcome!
I am curious...have me met on facebook? For example in B&Co group?
If so I think you also have an item by Beyermann&Company...perhaps a little box?
Yup!..:-)..that’s me
inky! So nice, makes me glad! I have actually "loved" some of your glass already!
Have you shown your little box here somewhere ?
No! I don’t have it on here, if you click on each persons name you will see what each has listed on here..sorry if you already know this but just in case you don’t..
I have looked at soo much beautiful glass and read about them. Been here for a month and it´s so large with all categories mixed. I get a little dizzy. Thank you for explaining! Can I ask you for one thing?
At show and tell...there are many thousands! ( 237,900 ! ) - can I choose a page in the middle? Or must I take one by one? I have done that now and I would like to "fast forward and back" Do you know if that´s possible and how in that case?
And / or can I sort up in categories (as Glass ) when looking through all posts?
This is so interesting to finally have joined; I have looked here many times in my B&Co search, many links goes to CW !
Inky ; I think I found out how it works , partly.
( I checked now and saw that one of the first loves I made was vases of yours! A pair Black Harrach with birds and flowers. So lovely! )
Hi, Beyermann. :-)
This is a beautiful Beyermann vase.
I'm not sure if this is at all helpful to you, but one way of finding the "midpoint" in the art glass posts here at Collectors Weekly Show & Tell is to sort on "Art Glass," scroll all the way to the bottom (that does take quite a bit of time), do a "Select All," copy it, and paste it into a text file.
Then you can use variety of search and replacement commands to winnow out the actual post links, and import them into a spreadsheet.
At that point, you would have to do more manipulation of the data in order to get it to treat the story numbers as true numbers rather than text and then sort on those.
I realize that this kind of activity isn't everybody's idea of fun. It could be just today, but I'm not even sure whether I'm up to it anymore. };-)
Also, a lot of what has been catagorized as "Art Glass," isn't necessarily legitimate art glass.
For instance, while I was scrolling to the bottom of the art glass posts, out of the corner of my eye, I'm pretty sure I saw a post of a ship deck or sidewalk prism. I think those prisms are very cool, but are they art glass? I don't think so.
What I can tell you is I came up with 22,221 art glass posts, the lowest story number of which was 88, and the highest 317,887. The two posts in the middle of the 22,221 art glass posts (22,221 being an odd number) would be these ones:
https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/173450-murano-red-glass-aventurine-ring
https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/173464-beautiful-colours-in-this-mdina-glass-bo
Of course, this is just a snapshot in time. While I was doing all of this data manipulation, somebody might have added or deleted art glass posts.
I think I need a nap now. };-)
Hi keramikos! I did the same as you today. I scrolled down , down , down and took a pause and then did it again...and they I did a dum thing; I clicked at a post that got my attention and after that I was at the top again! I came to the end at last but I am sure I missed plenty in the middle. When you have scrolled once it gets faster next time.
The days before I searched all posts from the latest and forward or the oldest and went backwards. 50 sides at the time and next time I had to start all over...When choosing "Bohemian Art glass" that I found out today it was much faster. But not fast. Now there are 6683 posts to look at. An Amazing library!!!
Reading back, I think I may have misinterpreted your question.
If all you want to do is go to the middle of all the posts at CW S&T, that's not difficult.
Currently, there are 4,957 pages of posts. This is an odd number, so I'm going to drop the last page, and use 4,956.
4,956 / 2 = 2,478
Open up a fresh browser window or tab, and paste into the address window this link:
https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/page-2478
Voila, you are approximately at the halfway point. That's not by the actual age of the posts, though. Ordering is affected by likes, loves, and comments.
If you want the posts/stories sorted by age, you'd first have to sort them by "Latest Posts," and then divide them in half:
https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/all/page-2478
The first post on page 2,478 sorted by post age is story number 169,621, and the next one is 169,620, and they're both from approximately eight years ago.
Are they exactly in the middle? No, but it's probably close enough for all but the most anal-retentive among us. };-)
keramikos, thank you for telling ! Yes, it´s struggling but I am curious of old posts that has been forgotten and never got an answer or perhaps ID. Have you seen the nice vase by Beyermann&Company in green and yellow that was posted here many years ago? That one was one of the first B&Co I saw on Google and it was here on CW ! And Malkeys, of course...a little later.
Beyermann, You're very welcome. :-)
I didn't notice until later that we'd probably commented within minutes of each other yesterday.
No, I can't say that I saw the green and yellow Beyermann vase. I did a quick search for Beyermann, but that didn't find it. Perhaps it wasn't described as Beyermann by the owner?
By the way, if you see a post that isn't properly identified, feel free to identify it in a comment thereon. I've done that myself with vintage sewing machine posts.
Also: I got rid of all of my work files from yesterday except one roughly sorted spreadsheet of art glass posts.
When I say "roughly sorted," I mean that I did a simple sort, so the posts are not really in order by age (because the story numbers were treated like text instead of numbers).
However, if you want it or a simple text version thereof, I can email it to you (my email address is in my profile). Let me know.
There probably will be some delays with you and I being on opposite sides of the Atlantic Ocean, but we could get it done eventually.
keramikos! Thank you ,So kind for helping me but I can manage the posts better for each time because , I have gotten methods to search, so I´m fine. The green and yellow B&Co was posted as; "Enameled vase". So lovely! It was the second I loved! The first was MALKEY´s.
OK, I found it by going through your "loves," because trying to use "enameled vase" as search criteria was oddly not helpful:
https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/149647-enameled-vase
I see kairomalte identified it as Beyermann, along with an approximate age, so that post is in good shape.
Unless you got an email from godsotherson, I'm afraid this might be a classic case of an abandoned post.
I hate to tell you this, but more and more, Collectors Weekly Show & Tell is starting to look like a ghost ship. :-(
We had a recent problem with a smut-for-profit post, and it took the administrative staff days to delete it, despite notification from numerous users. I suspect that the staff is skeletal at this point, and administrating CW S&T might not be their only job.
Fortunately, Mr. Peabody's Wayback Machine has taken numerous snapshots of the site:
https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://www.collectorsweekly.com
However, if there are particular posts that you value, you might want to make your own archival copies of them.
keramikos Thank´s again! I hope to get in touch with that vase! And MALKEY´s, of course. Fingers crossed.
Beyermann, You're welcome again. :-)
By the way, a couple things:
That link to archive dot org above doesn't work well here; however, that site does indeed have archives of Collectors Weekly going back to the beginning.
I spot-checked, and not all of the sublinks work. :-(
On the subject of viewing all of the art glass posts/stories here, it IS possible to sort them by age online. By default, when you select the "Art Glass" category, the sort is by "Recent Activity." You can also sort by "Posts," however, it will sort them starting with the most recent at the top (a new one today by kwqd):
https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/317930-toyo-sasaki-sake-cups-nib
If you want to look at the oldest, it still would be the very tedious process of scrolling.
Here is the oldest surviving art glass post/story:
https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/88-bell-telephone-manufacturing-co-glass-b
Thanks for all the explanations. Now I really have lots to look at !!!
You're welcome. :-)
The offer still stands for a collection of all the CW S&T Art Glass links, with the caveats that (1) not everything categorized as Art Glass is necessarily what you or I would consider art glass (2) my collection isn't necessarily perfect.
I redid the whole collection process yesterday, and ended up with 22,221 Art Glass posts, which matches what I got earlier. However, since that time, a couple of new art glass posts have been added. Hmmm.
For what it's worth, I added a column with just the story numbers, which allows for sorting on those. A story number stays with a story/post throughout its life, so that's a solid indicator of the age of the post.
Thanks but no thanks. I´ll manage by taking it slow.
But I think perhaps you can post this your idea and your work to people running CW.
Thanks for the suggestion, but I doubt that the CW staff would be interested in my ersatz 'database' of CW S&T Art Glass.
For one thing, I imagine that they have better resources at their disposal. For another, I suspect the staff has their hands full just with keeping this site running adequately.
I don't know if you were on board yet when this happened, but a few months back, CW S&T had a case of software corruption. It took quite a bit of time for the staff to return it to some semblance of normal operation. In fact, it still isn't quite the same as it used to be, and probably never will be.
I think the current staff is relatively new. That is, it isn't anybody who's been here from the beginning, so there's a lack of continuity in terms of site-specific knowledge. They're probably doing the best they can under the circumstances. :-(
