A swab reject apparatus identifies and rejects articles that are made in a particular section and mold of a multi-gob, individual section (IS) glassware machine during a particular cycle of operation. The apparatus includes a manually actuated mold switch for each mold of the machine and a pulse generator that generates pulses corresponding to all of the articles made by the machine. Controls responding to the pulse generator and the manually actuated mold switches identify those articles while the articles are moving in series along an output conveyor. Once identified, the article or articles produced during the machine cycles immediately following swabbing are removed from the series on the conveyor.
