Any glass experts know the name of this pattern? ... very early or 'old' looking glass ... I'm thankful for any input.

"Maryland". There were a number of patterns, known as the "States" - most reissued from other companies after consolidation of small companies into U.S. Glass around the turn of the (last) century. Has some other names as well, but collectors (Maryland residents, oddly enough) will collect it under the state name.
Circa 1895-1910.
Not a big seller, unless you hit a "state" collector, so that 85.00 tag might be a bit off base.

Damariscotta: Wow! Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge!! ... this is an item from our antique shop estate, and I could not find anything about it in the several glass books I've got. ... thanks for giving me a lot more to 'go on' in getting this listed ... I'm grateful to you.
