That blue looks like it was done with a magic marker.

To answer your actual question . . .

To the best of my knowledge, no one has reproduced ANY cast milkglass lenses. The cost for the molds would be prohibitive for the small number of lenses you could sell.

Real cast milkglass lenses are domed - just like regular globe lenses. If these are really 'flat' as the auction states - then they are NOT original lenses - but something else entirely. In other words 'fantasy' lenses made with flat white glass.

And yes, the colors are reversed. For the correct color scheme, see our reproductions in the 16.5" lens section of our web site.

Later . . .
