Return of a Soda Fountain Classic.  

There was a time when almost every town in America had a soda fountain. During the 1940s and 1950s, fountain drinks and ice cream treats were served by jerks (pardon the expression) in bell-shaped glasses nesting in gleaming stainless-steel holders.

According to Retail Druggist Magazine, these sets "prevented the gloves of women customers from being soiled by the accidental slopping over of some of the contents of the glass."  This nearly-forgotten serveware is once again the standard for over-the-top malted milkshakes, ice cream sodas, egg creams, root beer floats, and creations only limited by imagination.
