Screw-cap 32oz. globes were phased out around 1992. I don't know if screw-top Silver Streaks or Elec-Tricks were made (I don't believe so) but there are screw-top Princesses, since the Princess appeared in 1990. Screw-cap Midnights and Enchantresses are actually rarer than some 1970s lamps like Enchantress Planters and Carlisles.

 

That red Princess on the left is actually a rare color, called coral red, color number 06. When the Coach Lantern was discontinued starting in 1990, its red/clear (the only red/clear in the 80s) which had been designated 06 was out, leaving the number open. Elec-Trick and later models' red/clear was number 10. The third original Princess color besides purple is also rare: lemon yellow, number 08.

Gorgeous. When did they make the screw-cap 32oz? I have one from 1983.
