Default Can Anyone Help Finding A Couple Of Glasses?

I bought a bottle of Glenlivet last week and it came with a couple of wide bottomed glasses that closely resemble a glass from Glencairn, except that the top is straight instead of flared and I'd like to find where to get more of them.

Another glass I'd really like to find is pictured in the middle on the cover of:
The World's Best Whiskies by Dominic Roskrow, and if anyone can help identify them I'd be most grateful.

If necessary I'll try to add pictures later today or tomorrow.

Those are the big ones I was talking about and they are perfect for laying in bed watching a movie or using the computer, as they can't fall over and spill no matter what you do. I also like the nosing aspect of these quite a bit.
Any idea who makes them so I can try and find some sterile ones or a branding I actually like?
Thanks for finding the picture.

This is the best I can do.

Glencairn Wide-Bowl Whisky Glass - Set of 4 - $49.99



You'll have to settle with the Canadian Maple leaf on the bottom.

I've heard that style glass referred to as a Canadian Whisky Glass
or a Canadian Glencarin (which might explain the Maple Leaf.)

I have ordered from ScotchWhiskyGlass.com in the past. They carry
the CWG - $13.50 for one (incl. shipping). The Canadians are sold
out currently but maybe check back or e-mail asking when they might
be back in stock.

The first glass Michael located is the exact glass I'm interested in and if it has to say Glenlivet then so be it, but the main difference to the Glencairn is the fluted top, and much like the famous smaller Glencairn Whisky Glass has, I like the straight up top without the flare.
At present I have two of the Glenlivet glasses and at least know that I can find more if need be.

Thanks Silverfish! ScotchWhiskyGlass.com you mention is owned by our member bkblankenship (Kenneth) - the one I just mentioned who I hope can give added help with Islay Peat's search.
