Wine glass

A wine glass with a conical bowl and an opaque white twist stem (one very broad band covering the entire stem) and a conical foot. Wheel-engraved with a starboard side view of a warship and the inscription: 'Success to the ALFRED CAPTAIN JOSHUA WATSON.' Probably 20th century but the style is slightly different to the other glasses in this collection.
