How can I date a piece of carnival glass and have it appraised? I believe it's very old the piece i have. Does anyone have information on this glass I have?

@marktamayo17 You might as well have just said " Hi I'm a bootlegger, and I'm trying to sell you fake junk"

Just remember to get a book that has the different factory marks because that it just about the only way to get an idea of how old the glass really is. They still make this stuff and unless you know what your looking at,it's very easy to make a very expensive mistake!
