| Open Edge Basket Reissues, Fenton | |
 |  |
| Fenton's popular open edge baskets were reproduced in amethyst in 1970-1973 and in marigold in 1976-1977. Fenton also made red baskets for the Canadian Carnival Collectors Association in 1990. The fenton logos is on the basketweave part, not the base of these baskets. The club lettering is enameled in white--and easy to remove.
On eBay, baskets in amethyst, blue or red bring $20 to $30. Fenton also made baskets with attached handles, at least some for QVC. One in vaseline opal brought $90 at a live auction in 2000; handled baskets in purple bring $15 to $25. The green handled basket above sold on eBay in 2003 for $27. | |
