You're snake looks familiar Brad ... ... You both have Fantastic mibs ... -
Warm soapy water and a medium bristle brush (maybe a couple hours soaking) never any harsh chemicals or "Hot" water, don't want the glass to react in a bad way, steel wool if needed.

A couple more pix for this "Peltier Tuesday" a favorite Rainbo. Sorry bout the lighting, it makes it look like fracs but I assure you there are none.

"Happy Peltier Tuesday" I found out what this was after I purchased Elizabeth Kempski's book on cat eyes. pg. 55 describes red as being the rarest of the base glass type for cats. Followed on pg. 56 by pictures of the two companies that made a red base glass cat, Marble King & Peltier. Her pictures are excellent and it was easy to pick this one out as Pelt. I've had two of them, this is the second, the first grew legs or wings I'm not sure which ? The second was a lucky find for me.

Leaning almost completely on condition, if you have a few rare specials or mint popeyes in there it'll always help but condition is # 1. No telling w/o pics.

I have a copy of Elizabeth's book, bar none the best cat eye book ever printed. High gloss paper, excellent pictures and both US and foreign manufacturers, packaging, dates, etc. She did a great job, I remember when it came out there was a little hesitation but after a few purchases & inspections by long time collectors it received a stamp of approval.
