Many people do not understand the value of glass. This book provides readers with historical and comparative information that will help them learn the difference between those objects that can have value and those that do not. Types of glass covered include blown, blown molded, and pressed glass. Keys to identification are explained throughout, accompanied by color illustrations and maker's marks when present; a glossary of terms and index are included. Items across the spectrum are identified as to what they are and what they are worth.
