Warner Bros. Variation Glasses
Original release: December 2001
Byline: Brent Sehnert
Recently I placed a couple of items on the auction site eBay that I listed
as Variation glasses. This brought about some discussion between people
and someone eventually asked me the question "How many different Warner
Bros. variations do you know of?" Well, I listed off a few and then was
told by people that they had never heard of some of these. Some actually
doubted my knowledge. Well, I always doubt what I have not seen before,
but that has since prompted me to ask a few other collectors and this
is the list I came up with. If you have others to add, know of ones I
am wrong on, etc, please let me know. I will post some updates as I get
them.
