Re: Is this Fostoria?

Hello there! 

To answer your question in a nutshell,  No, it is not Fostoria.  But what you do have is called "Prelude".  A very nice glassware originally from the New Martinsville Glass Company, sometime around the mid 1930's.  This pattern was continued by the Viking Glass Company when they took over New Martinsville Glass in 1943!  I hope this helps you out!
