Austin Aqua Festival 1963,1964, 1957 Regatta Trophy. Selling all three with<br>provenance. These two Aqua fest Trophies will be the highlight of any Austin<br>Aqua Fest Collection. They are rare, one of a kind, the type of holy grail<br>collectibles that you don't even consider the existence of until you encounter<br>it. I'm including the 1957 trophy because it provides interesting provenance to<br>the two aqua fest trophies. They are all from the same estate and were won by<br>the Same man. I'm including a screenshot of his obituary. He was 40 when he won<br>the 1957 trophy, 46 for the '63, and 47 for the '64. Provenance is not something<br>usually considered with these types of collectibles, but it is interesting in<br>this case. I'm selling the lot for one price. If you're in Austin which the<br>future owner most likely will be, I've met locally to sell earlier skipper pins<br>and other rare Austin Memorabilia.<br><br>The Austin Aqua Festival was created in 1962 to promote Austin and the Texas<br>Highland Lakes as a top vacation area and to boost the local economy in what was<br>normally a slow period. The first Aqua Fest occurred Aug. 3-12, 1962. Art<br>Linkletter was the headliner for the event.<br><br>The festival offered many water related events such as a<br>150-mile canoe race, fishing contests, a sailingregatta and an illuminated night<br>time parade on the lake. There were many land based events also including the<br>Miss Austin Aqua Beauty contest, a twilight land parade, a<br>daytime military parade,<br>a rodeo, golf tournament, concerts, dances and fireworks.<br><br>Patrons of the fest could purchase a book of discount tickets to get into the<br>various venues. The tickets were called Skipper Script. The next year, the<br>script gave way to the Skipper Pin, which was purchased and pinned on the goers<br>clothing, letting the workers know that the wearer was eligible for discounts on<br>tickets.<br><br>The central location for many of the events was "Festival Beach," a small park<br>on Town Lake between the city-owned power plant and a residential neighborhood.<br>The city had originally created Town Lake as a cooling pond for the power plant.<br><br>In 1964, the festival added one of its most popular and controversial<br>events, drag boat racing on Town Lake. It also added a water<br>skiing championship, kite flying championship and an Austin Grand Prix - sports<br>car racing on city streets.<br><br>The 1966 Aqua Fest started out with the world premiere of Batman, with Adam<br>West and other actors from the movie in attendance. 1966 also saw the start of<br>the "Battle of the Bands", in which unknown rock and roll bands were judged for<br>awards and recognition. Battle of the Bands would become the festival's top<br>draw. The United States Air Force air demonstration squadron,<br>the Thunderbirds first performed at the Fest the same year.<br><br>By 1968, an estimated crowd of 150,000 watched the night lighted water parade,<br>which had been renamed to Rio Noche parade in 1964. The crowds were starting to<br>overwhelm Festival Beach causing traffic congestion, parking problems and<br>security concerns for the residents plus the noise of the events, especially the<br>drag boats. However, the mostly Hispanic community had very little political<br>clout to get anything changed.<br><br>Theme nightsEdit<br><br>Theme nights began in 1969. Various nights of the festival would highlight<br>different cultures of Texas. This first year there was<br>Western, German, Czech and Jazz and Rhythm and Blues nights. Throughout the<br>years the theme nights varied as new ones were tried and unpopular ones not<br>repeated. These included Mexican, Black Heritage, Italian, American and<br>International nights. Toward the end of the festival's life, the theme nights<br>had settled to multiple nights with Western and Mexican themes.<br><br>Aero-FestEdit<br><br>Also in 1969, Bergstrom Air Force Base, on the southeast edge of Austin, began<br>an open house in conjunction with Aqua Fest and titled it Aero-Fest. In addition<br>to the Thunderbirds performing, the gathering showed off many<br>military airplanes and other hardware. A crowd favorite was a C-5 Galaxy, which<br>visitors would walk through to get to the main display area. Aero-Fest was an<br>instant success and in just two years it was drawing 80,000 people to the base.<br>Aero-Fest ceased when the base closed in 1993.<br><br>1970–1979Edit<br><br>The new decade saw Aqua Fest's continued growth with the addition of more new<br>events such as a photography contest and motocross in 1971 and the Pet Parade in<br>1972. But the growth of the event brought confrontation with the neighborhoods<br>surrounding Festival Beach. Complaints had gone unheeded and people finally took<br>to the streets in protest. The anti-Fest coalition was led by Paul Hernandez and<br>a group calling itself the "Brown Berets." Protesters were arrested and they in<br>turn sued the City of Austin and Aqua Fest. By the end of the decade, the drag<br>boat races were gone from Town Lake and pressure was on to find a new location<br>to hold other Aqua Fest events.<br><br>1980–1989Edit<br><br>Due to continued protest and growing crowds, Aqua Fest was moved from Festival<br>Beach to Auditorium Shores, a larger park along Town Lake about a mile to the<br>west of Festival Beach. This larger area meant the festival could now have<br>multiple stages for entertainment. The festival organizers signed up corporate<br>sponsors and local radio stations to co-sponsor the entertainment and began<br>booking national acts.<br><br>The City of Austin, which had subsidized Aqua Fest in its early years, now<br>believed the Fest was self-sufficient and withdrew its financial support. The<br>city began charging the festival for use of Auditorium Shores.<br><br>In 1985, attendance at Aqua Fest peaked at 252,000. More criticism came at the<br>festival for lack of parking, excessive noise and alcohol abuse issues. This<br>time the rebuke was from residents of the Bouldin Creek neighborhood just south<br>of Auditorium Shores. The opponents of the festival were able to force a<br>non-binding referendum to move Aqua Fest to Lake Walter E. Long in far east<br>Austin. The measure passed but promised corporate support to build a new<br>facility went away as Texas entered an oil bust in the middle of the decade.<br>Aqua Fest stayed at Auditorium Shores.<br><br>1990–1998Edit<br><br>With its multiple stages for entertainment, Aqua Fest changed from a civic event<br>to a live music event. The organizers began to book bigger and bigger acts, even<br>paying premiums to get popular acts such as Dolly Parton in 1992. This drove<br>ticket prices up and attendance down. By 1993, the festival only drew 44,000<br>people and as a result lost $722,000. The festival organization exhausted its<br>cash reserves and asked its largest creditor, the City of Austin, for permission<br>to pay off its debt in annual installments.<br><br>In 1994, Aqua Fest returned to its roots with more local acts and an all<br>volunteer staff and in 1995 brought back the popular theme nights. They also<br>tried drag boat races again, this time at Lake Walter E. Long, but the races<br>drew little interest. It was all too little, too late and the Austin Aqua<br>Festival folded in 1998.

Erickson Green Controlled Bubble Glass Shrimp cocktail Or Chip and Dip. I'm assuming that's what it's inteneded use was, obviously once it's yours the opportunities are endless. No cracks, chips, or other issues. tw78 Erickson Glassworks Bremen, Ohio 1943-1961 Established by Carl Erickson in Bremen, Ohio (1943-1961) produced world famous handmade art glass. Carl Erickson and his brother Stephen, Swedish immigrants from Reijmre, Sweden, a famous glass center, descended from master glass blowers. Carl learned his trade at Pairpoint Manufacturing Company in New Bedford, Massachusetts where he worked for 20 years. From there in 1932, he went to Libby Glass in Toledo for four years, then a brief stay in Hollywood where he designed the chandelier for Greta Garbo's "Camille". The Blenko Glass Company in Milton, West Virginia hired him as a designer and teacher of apprentices. In 1943 Carl and Stephen Erickson bought a defunct glass factory in Bremen, Ohio. Erickson's glass patents involved what he called a "flame design" . His trademark was the extensive use of controlled bubble design which was incorporated in a heavy glass ball which served as a base for many different pieces. Carl Erickson personally designed most of the pieces manufactured at his glass works. His honors include: U.S. Parks Commission chose him to blow the first piece of glass at "Glass House Point" near Jamestown, Virginia commemorating the first U.S. glass factory The Museum of Modern Art, New York - award for good design Smithsonian Institute of Washington, D.C. commissioned him to duplicate complex old glass fixtures. Old Sturbridge Museum, Sturbridge, Massachusetts - old glass fixtures as above Metropolitan Museum of Art - produced glass pieces Corning Museum of Glass, Corning, New York - produced glass pieces Senate of Ohio - resolution stated "A craftsman who has brought to his community and his state well deserved fame for his singular and rare skill."

In winter she'd wrap herself in plastic<br>garbage bags and substitute rubbing alcohol for water in her paints, so they<br>wouldn't freeze.<br><br>"She just really captured the essence of the dynamic nature of construction,"<br>said Tom Broderick, executive director of the Construction Safety Council in<br>Hillside, which has about 100 of Mrs. Lai's paintings on display. "The craft<br>workers will feel the loss of Grace. She really cared about the industry and the<br>people who worked in it."<br><br>Until her husband, Harry, died in 1985, Mrs. Lai was essentially an artist's<br>assistant. He maintained a studio on Kinzie Street in the building that now<br>houses Harry Caray's restaurant, producing signs that graced everything from<br>theater marquees to train stations.<br><br>He was also a fine artist, and on every wedding anniversary, which fell on<br>Valentine's Day, he gave his wife a painting of a rose.<br><br>Mrs. Lai did prep work and handled the books at her husband's business. While<br>she dabbled in drawing and painting, her husband always told her she needed to<br>learn the artist's trick of perspective and made her promise she'd one day go to<br>art school.<br><br>So when he died, she enrolled at the American Academy of Art in Chicago. Each<br>day she took an uncrowded, early morning bus to her classes so she'd have room<br>for her art materials.<br><br>She got off at LaSalle and Adams streets in front of a construction site. With<br>time to kill, she pulled out a pencil and sketched the action.<br><br>"The developers liked it so much they hired her to develop a documentation of<br>the progression of their buildings," her son said.<br><br>Thus the craft of construction became the primary subject of her art. Working in<br>watercolor or pen and ink, she became a familiar sight at construction projects<br>around town. Laborers stopped by to chat with the gregarious artist, asking if<br>they had been sketched in that day, sometimes buying work that bore their<br>likeness.<br><br>In addition to her work on display at the headquarters of the Construction<br>Safety Council, a longtime patron, Mrs. Lai's paintings are part of the<br>corporate collection at BP (formerly Amoco) and Northwestern Memorial Hospital,<br>her son said.<br><br>The daughter of immigrants from the Chinese region of Canton, the former Grace<br>Lee moved frequently in her youth as her family followed her father's various<br>restaurants. She graduated from Schurz High School in Chicago.<br><br>For many years, she was the Sunday school superintendent at Chinese Christian<br>Union Church in Chinatown.<br><br>She kept painting until only recently, working on projects including the Trump<br>Tower.<br><br>"If I lose myself in painting, that's good," she told the Tribune in 2002, still<br>vibrant as she neared 75.
