I came across this while looking up the portrait thing and I think quite possibly these could’ve been the glasses that held the famed salamanders once upon a very cold evening in Valley Forge??[Image Description: a book page with two black-and-white pictures stacked vertically. The top is of five glasses - one a small wine glass, and the others shot glasses, with decorative garlands painted on them. The bottom one is of a case with the lid removed, which stores the glasses, as well as six bottles of what I assume to be alcohol. The caption beneath reads “STEUBEN’S ARMY LIQUOR CASE AND GLASSES, in the possession of Mr. James Sweeney Thompson, of North Tonawanda, N.Y.”] -- source link
