Book excerpt: The Dugan Glass Company and its successor, the Diamond Glass Company of Indiana, Pennsylvania, were among the largest producers of the glass we now call "carnival". They were the largest producers of the popular peach opalescent carnival glass, yet very little was known about them until quite recently. Now for the first time ever, there is a source of information that focuses exclusively on the carnival glass produced by these two "sleeping giants" of the glassware industry. This long-awaited and much needed book features nearly 300 pieces of Dugan and Diamond carnival glass, shown in full color, including many one-of-a-kind rarities. The many illustrations from the wholesale catalogs of the period and from the only known Dugan factory catalog offer some unique insights into the marketing and distribution of this beautiful glassware. Also included is an in-depth look at the production of the colors and shapes made for all of the known carnival glass patterns to come from these two, firms. A special section featuring the most complete listing on Dugan/Diamond reproductions and reproduction trademarks ever compiled should be especially helpful to the beginning or advanced collector or dealer. A complete value guide for all known patterns, colors, and shapes is included.

Download or read book Glasshouses and Glass Manufacturers of the Pittsburgh Region written by Jay W. Hawkins and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-04 with total page 614 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pittsburgh region, while well known for steelmaking, was likewise an important glass manufacturing center in this country's history. This book provides detailed accounts of the region's glassmakers from the first factory dating to 1795 through 1910. Glassmaking started out modestly with small glasshouses in Pittsburgh and up the Monongahela River in New Geneva during the final few years of the 18th century. By the close of the 19th century, the Pittsburgh region was producing more than half of all domestic window glass and the lion's share of most other forms of glass in the United States. The original purpose of this manuscript was to assemble and record as accurately as possible the history of all of the glassworks and the glass manufacturers that operated them in Pittsburgh and the immediate surrounding region. This book was designed to be a reference guide for anyone who is interested in the history of glass in western Pennsylvania. The years companies were operating, where the glassworks were located, what types of glass and specific glass items did they make, and what marks did they use is just some of the information that can be found in this book. There are hundreds of individual companies and name changes listed in this volume. It contains as much information about each company that could practically be included. Even the most minor name or address change was recorded exactly as noted by contemporary sources. As much as possible, contemporary reference sources, such as city directories, early newspapers, maps, and journals were used to provide accurate and complete histories of the glasshouses. Generally, the better-known companies will have much more of their history available. However, every known glassmaker and glasshouse was included, regardless of how little information about them could be found. This book is intended to aid researchers in the determination of the age and the origin of marked pieces as well as narrowing down potential manufacturers of unmarked objects. The liberal reproduction of original advertisements and maps as well as the photographs of glass marks were included to complement and augment the narrative. The format of this book was established to facilitate its use as a reference guide.
