Texas Carnival Glass Club Souvenirs
The Texas Carnival Glass Club (TCGC) made several souvenirs for its conventions. See this article written in the Collectible Carnival Glass Association (CCGA) June 2001 newsletter.
For several years, Texas had table favors made but they were not marked. The first marked souvenir was for their 1999 convention. Fenton made this vaseline opal Fine Cut and Grapes rosebowl. This souvenir marked the club's 20th anniversary.
These 4 1/2 inch blue paperweights were made by Summit Art Glass from a series of moulds they acquired from Imperial which had acquired them from another glass company. The moulds all celebrated the Texas centennial and inlcuded scenes such as the Alamo. It appears Imperial never used these moulds. Summit only used this one paperweight mould. The lettering on the base reads "Texas Centennial - 1836-1936".

The paperweight comes in two colors; a light blue / celeste and a darker amethyst.

The Texas Carnival Glass Club used the piece as their 2000 convention souvenir. It was not marked in the mold as a Texas souvenir but did have a sticker.

For their 2001 convention souvenir, Gibson made this vaseline opal Grape spittoon shaped bowl. The bottom of the spittoon is impressed with "TCGC BY GIBSON" and a sticker on the top rim notes 2001.
For their 2002 convention souvenir, Gibson made this vaseline opal perfume and stopper. The total height of the piece is 4 and 5/8 inches. The bottom of the perfume is impressed with "TCGC BY GIBSON".


To celebrate Texas's 30th and 40th anniversay conventions, they issued a green Beaded Shell water set in 2009 and a yellow 12 inch tall 474 vase in 2019. Both of these souvenirs were made by Mosser Glass, The green water set is marked on the bottom. The 474 vase on the right in the photo is the one given to each convention banquet attendee. The flattened vase was one of about 12 differently whimsied versions sold during the banquet as a fundraiser. Each vase is etched "Texas 2019" on the bottom. Molded into the vase is Imperial's IG mark at least three times.
