Imperial Scroll Embossed Root Beer Sauce Bowl

Found this Scroll Embossed 5 1/2" sauce at least 15 years ago at a Depression glass show in Wichita, Kansas for the price of a cup of coffee and a dozen donuts. I always thought it was amber in color but it looked a bit too dark.

I don't remember exactly when Dr. Roy Hieger did an educational seminar at the Air Capital Carnival Glass convention on Imperial Glass in Wichita.  I'm guessing maybe 10 yrs ago. I showed the good doctor the bowl that day and he said it looked too dark to be amber and that it was probably root beer in color so root beer it is. Not all may agree though, but here it is.
