Well, I'm one of the largest collector's of Fenton in the country . . . and that [ugly] alley cat is a "newer" piece [since 1990]. Older pieces were NOT marked prior to 1971. A LOT of misinformation is in this video.

Your also wrong about the carnival glass. Vintage Fenton carnival glass from the time period you referred to (1905-1920) will not have a mark or label. Modern pieces and reproductions have marks and labels and typically have lower values than the older pieces.

You're wrong about the stein. Many German steins don't have marks at all at the bottom, and are still made there. In the Mettlach, Thewalt, Gerz etc name case, its almost always consistent to see a mark. However, if there isn't a mark, its pretty easy to tell what is German and what isn't.

This is more of a quick overview. On my show Collectibles Corner TV things will be gone into in depth and researched more thoroughly. THanks for the input though!

I collect personally and monitor the market, actually, even a great deal of german steins are unwanted or worthless, to this day, makers such as hauber and reuther, mettlach and OLD gerz seem to be the top items on point. Also regimental pieces are valuable. In general a 9 inch mettlach can go for 350+. While other german steins which were sloppy made, even as antiques can't even fetch 20 on ebay.
