Ulysses Grant Glass Item


Submitted by Lisa:
I am attempting to value an item my great aunt gave to me. She was a collector of diverse antiques. What she gave to me is a glass that had Ulysees S. Grant's face and name imprinted in the base of the glass, so that you would see this image after drinking to the bottom of the glass. It is definitely from the era, as it has the purplish cast that I've noticed in 1800s glass. There are no chips. The glass is between the size of today's rocks glass and a normal drinking glass. Do you have a guess as to its value? Thanks for your help.
