Sabu & GatorRob,
The ribbed glasses were made by Dunbar Glass and the pattern is called Aramis.
They were available in many colors and I'd bet that Dunbar supplied the clear
ones.

Yeah, I know. I have several colors of them from Dunbar. I'm just skeptical because of the fragility of those. Maybe they made other more heavy duty ones for restaurants though. Or another company picked up on the design and made them. What's also interesting to me is that, like those once-ubiquitous green/yellow ceramic tiles, the use of these glass started somewhere (where?!? Don's?) and then proliferated everywhere.
