Dunbar Beverage Set
Pitcher and ring tumblers, all done in Dunbar's lustered amber color. Dunbar catalogs list a similar pitcher as # 1133. The catalog picture does not show the top of the lip so a definite identification cannot be made. The pitcher above has a pronounced ice lip.

"Colored Glass of the Depression Era, Book 2" by Hazel Marie Weatherman shows examples of beverage sets which use the same ringed tumbler. Under the picture of the Dunbar ad is added a name for each of the beverage sets. Both the Porthos and Aramis sets in that ad use the same tumbler but the jugs are different from the one shown above.

I could not find any indication of named sets in the text of Dunbar catalogs or advertising leading me to believe that the named sets were created by collectors.
