    Description

    This small Ruby Flash Glass creamer is an example of Early American Pattern Glass (EAPG).  It came from the estate of a woman who grew up on a farm in central Kansas, as her parents had done before her.  The Corner Store in Tampa is no longer in business, although the community is still there.  It is located in Marion County, a 2.5-hour drive west of Kansas City, and reported a population of 108 in 2022.  Measurements of the souvenir creamer are approximately 3" tall, 1.75" diameter at the top, and 2" diameter at the base.
