#2617 CD 642 VM Olive with amber tone.
The "Gingerbread Man." The largest in the glass ginger family.
These olive colored examples with slight amber toning are quite desirable among collectors.
A glass factory by the name of La Verrerie Ouvriere d’Albi was formed in1896 in the town of Albi, France. Bottles were produced at the glasshouse for a number of years. In 1917, the factory began making insulators for the French National Defense. Various insulators were manufactured at the plant, including the CD 642 "Gingerbread Men" with "VA" marking.
