Oakland, Ill souvenir glass- bought off of ebay a couple years ago- ruby flash:The red(ruby) flashing is not in the glass, put applied to the outside- the glass is pressed glass- was pressed into a mold. The writing is not etched, but a decal applied over the flashing.
Since the red is flashed on and not in the glass itself- these items will scratch easily.
Tiffin Glass Company had a line of Kings Crown (Thumbprint) that were flashed- not only in ruby- but other colors as well. They later sold their molds to Indiana Glass.
