Amazing Old-Fashioned Measuring Glass

Unavailable
Wow! This huge, quart-size, vintage measuring glass has a wealth of information marked on its sides along with measuring markings for all kinds of liquids and dry ingredients. One group of markings measures from 1 Cill to 1/2 pint to 3 Cills to One Pint and finally to "1 Quart Even Full." Next to that it reads "10 Whole Eggs Make 1 Pint." The liquid weight marks include 4 oz, 8 oz, 12 oz, 1 pound, 20 oz and 24 oz. Next to that the glass reads "1Pound Butter Makes 1 Pint." Then there's a very helpful group of measurements in both "T" cups and "Coffee Cups," followed by the reminder that "Good Milk Contains 10% Cream." Dry measures are also marked: 2 oz, 1/4 pound, 6 oz, 1/2 pound, 10 oz, and finally a pound of "Flour Sifted Even Full." The instruction that "1 Pound Sugar Makes 1 Pint" rounds out this wonderful kitchen collectible. The bottom is marked "Silver & Co. Pat APL 30- '78 May 11- '86 New York". This would make a fantastic milkshake glass, a unique utensil holder or even a tall vase for flowers! Very unusual!
