Two runs of glass produced 23,040 pieces in 1924 according to factory records. 9 molds came with other equipment purchsed from BROOKFIELD after it went out of business. First run production was Jan 6 ~ 19. Second run was March 8 ~ 22. Original mold markings on the crowns are from Brookfield. Paying close attention to the skirts, "blot outs" can sometimes be seen. The first run was with the re-engraved LYNCHBURG lettering. By the time the second run was made, Lynchburg had added a small number to the right of the rear embossing, for some type of i.d. purpose.
