Some of my favorite sulphide paperweights!. Most of these paper weights are signed Bob and Joe St. Clair, and Joe Rice. The bulldog is signed Maude and Bob St Clair, probably my favorite and the hardest one to find. The big butterfly in the middle is unsigned and is anohter one of my favorites. Hope you enjoy the pics!

Awesome collection!!!!
Thanks Officialfuel!
Thanks MooreAntique!
I love the Bulldog!
Thanks rocker-sd! I've been collecting paperweights for 10 years and that's the only Bulldog st. clair paperweight I've ever seen. It's my favorite one out of all of them!
Great! Wasn't St. Clair from Indiana or there about?
Thank you Mark! Yeah Elwood Indiana.
We use to go on buying trips to the Midwest and I remember seeing St. Clair in a lot of states. Went to Webb's Antique Mall in Ind. all the time and saw plenty of their glass. Wish i would have bought some.

Oh by the way, I have 6 of the big butterfly weights! Just kidding. A very cool piece for sure.

Thanx scandinavian_pieces.
Love your paper weights..Live the bulldog.
Love the bulldog!!!!
Thanks lovevintage, the bulldog is my fav too!
Hi from downunder, you have some sulphides I have not seen before. Beautiful. The car & the kids look interesting. Your large butterfly is a real cracker. Collecting from Australia is a lot harder, oh to travel to US & UK on a purchasing trip..... I have my full collection on http://www.paperweightpassion.com if you would like to look.
Thanks paperweightpassion, very nice collection you have! The St Clairs are from Elwood Indiana, which is just north of me, so finding sulphides in this area makes it really easy. Thanks for stopping by!
Thanks lisa, beauxpurdy, sandhardin, and mtg75.
Bellin68, Thanks! U are the man!
Thank you Designer!
Some of those must look really beautiful with revolving light bases underneath, I love these, I find though if you put them in hot water that they will crack places on the inside, so I stay away except a light wet cloth to clean. The bulldog is wonderful, I always wonder how they do this kind, are there sculptures inside or what? !~Phil
