Set of Eight Vintage Hazel-Atlas 'Holiday Folklore' Frosted Glass Tumblers

This is a collection of eight vintage frosted glass tumblers, likely manufactured by Hazel-Atlas, known for their 'Holiday Folklore' series. Each glass is cylindrical, approximately 5 inches tall, and features a semi-translucent, frosted white finish. The top rim of each tumbler is adorned with a delicate, continuous design of small, wavy lines interspersed with tiny evergreen trees, rendered in a dark greenish-brown color. Below this border, each glass depicts a scene and text relating to a different country's holiday tradition, with the illustrations rendered in colorful, cartoonish detail. The colors used for the illustrations are vibrant and typically include red, yellow, blue, green, and brown, often with black outlines. The countries represented include 'POLAND Festival of the Stars', 'HOLLAND Skating to the Feast', 'NORWAY St Olaf's Day', 'IRELAND Christmas Evergreen', 'SWEDEN Sleigh Bells Jingle', 'AMERICA Carolers', 'ENGLAND Wassail Bowl Cheers', and one that is partially obscured but appears to be 'GERMANY Sugar Plum Dance'. The designs generally show people in traditional attire engaged in festive activities specific to the holiday or country. The glasses appear to be in good vintage condition, with no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear to the printed designs, suggesting they have been well-preserved. There may be minor scuffs or subtle fading commensurate with age and gentle use, but this is not clearly discernible from the provided images. The uniform style and frosted finish indicate a cohesive set, likely produced mid-20th century, possibly from the 1950s or 1960s, reflecting the popular mid-century modern aesthetic for kitchenware.
