   Here is a reprint from a previous edition of The Collectors Newsletter:   
      
   When I retired several years ago, I started collecting Early American Prescut   
   Glass.  I had seen several of the colored pieces but had not purchased any.    
   On an outing to Sulphur Spring, TX, I discovered a pale, yellow ashtray and   
   decided to buy it as a novelty piece.  All the way home, I kept thinking about   
   my neat find.  Imagine my surprise when the pale, yellow color washed off and   
   revealed a clear ashtray.  Apparently the ashtray had been used frequently   
   because the nicotine had given it a perfect coating.  All was not lost,   
   however, because I still had a new piece for my collection and a good story   
   about it.  Happy Hunting!
