I keep thinking I will get done with all of this stuff and either sell it or donate it but I keep finding more. I think this should be the last of it if anyone can help me one more time.
The only think I know for sure is that the 4 clear dessert cups have been around (in my dh's home) for over 50 years. Both my dh and his brother are over 60 years old and they remember them from when they were small.

The tall standing glasses, footed, in the second picture look like ice cream float dishes.

Is there a market still for pink depression glass since some patterns have been reproduced in recent years?

The sherbet cups (6th & 7th pictures) have no value. I'd like to see a better picture of the pattern on the tall footed iced teas. I can't tell the pattern from your shot of the partial pattern on the base.

Disclaimer: Not an expert on depression glass.
Pink depression glass still appears more popular than the green and various shades of yellow. The market is much softer than say 10 years ago but pieces still sell. American Sweetheart is the correct pattern on the last pictures for the plates.
Any taller glass or footed pink should make it worth listing. (I don't know the pattern name) I agree with max40 on the sherberts. Can't give 'em away at a garage sale!
I'm not well versed on lamps other than are all the teardrops been present and it appears it has been rewired? That piece may be more flea marketable (if that's word) but another poster may know more about that piece.

Any lamp is a crapshoot. Most are a waste of time to list. However, if a person is looking for a period lamp at the time yours is listed, it will go. If two people want it, it gets more interesting. The best case scenario, is if two interior decorators want it and get into a bidding war. It will only cost 35 cents to find out what it's worth to someone. And you'll have better odds of a return than you would with a lottery ticket.

Here are a couple more pics of the tall glasses. It is hard to get a good picture of them. They are the same pattern as the 4 cups and saucers. I really appreciate the help from everyone.

The pattern name for your cups and saucers and the tumblers is Madrid. Madrid has been heavily reproduced. Unless you tumblers are 4 1/4" tall-9 oz, they are reproductions, as that is the only size that was made originally in pink.
If you tell them Benjamin Franklin said it first, they'll believe you
