The glass itself is yellow in hue, as opposed to being purely clear in color.
This is typical with "Sun-Changed" or Irradiated Glass that has been exposed to lots of sunlight. Up until the Mid/Late-1950s, arsenic was widely used in glass-making. This glass begins to take on a yellow tint when in direct sunlight over a very long period of time. (The arsenic acid is completely consumed by the glass-making process and is no longer contained as "arsenic" in the final glassware.)
