      I know fort, just wanted you to know I pre-planned this Vets Day service related post & took pix last wk, I'm not a copycat like some we know. You're right though, a good day for our Boyd Glass pieces, both different and pretty neat. Thanks for the cool comment

      Appreciate the kind love

      Airplanes always garner huge attention in the collecting world, I have a collection of them myself although I mostly have metal ones.
    7. Newfld Newfld, 5 years ago
      Phil your airplanes are great, I love both the lamps and table models. There is something very appealing about planes, the whole idea of them - the man made bird in the sky & its evolution, their sleek look, the thrills of riding in them & of course the talent and responsibility of piloting them, I can definitely understand why they are prized collectibles. Super comment as always

      Really appreciate the love

      Newfld, So cute. <3

      It looks like Boyd Glass made at least three obvious greens (Nile Green 2-18-93, Columbia Green 3-4-03, and Meadow Green 10-4-07):

      Plus Sea Mist Carnival, and Mint Julep Carnival, which do look greenish to me, but not at all like the green of yours:

      https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/boyd-art-glass-airplane-mint-julip-1917759736

      I guess Nile Green was an opaque satin:

      Here's a Boyd Scottie dog in Meadow Green:

      https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/boyd-glass-mac-scottie-dog-13-meadow-green

      I couldn't quite tell the difference between Columbia green and Meadow green until I saw this Boyd tractor described as Meadow green:

      https://www.ebay.com/itm/373582161605

      It looks like it has swirls in it like slag glass, except it's transluscent, so if that's truly Boyd Meadow green, then your airplane is probably Columbia green.

      I couldn't find a Boyd airplane in Columbia green besides yours, but here is a Boyd tugboat in Columbia green:

      Thanks keramikos for the kind praise & great info on this Boyd plane. As I don't have it in front of me, but looking at 1st photo showing the mark, I'm not sure if the mark has the B diamond with underline (dating it 1983-1988) or top & bottom lines (dating it 1988-1993), so it should be one of the greens in those years. Your research is fantastic pls keep me posted!!
    19. keramikos, 2 years ago
      Newfld, You're welcome. :-)

      Boyd Glass certainly made some cute items.

      I also love this one with the back of plane touching ground and it brings to mind the beginning of "aeroplanes" and the Wright Brothers contributions !~
    21. Newfld Newfld, 2 years ago
      Thanks Phil for your super comment and you are absolutely spot on, this does look like one of those early Wright Bros plane inventions - where would aviation have been without those brave pioneers! Boyd did do a nice model with this one, isn't it cool how they imprinted their name across the top
