May 4, 2006

Barry and Brenda visited us from Las Vegas.
This was the second occassion in one week to use the Depression glass.



Post Script: Coleen asked about the pattern of Depression glass;
and Antidote3 wanted an explanation of the term Depression glass.

Antidote3: Depression glass is glassware manufactured from
the mid 1920's until around the begining of World War II.
Most of it was made during the Great (economic) Depression here in the U.S.
The glassware was often mass-produced and was considered poor quality.
But it was popular and affordable during times when money was short.

Coleen: Jill and I have no idea what patterns we have.
We think most of our pieces were made by Morgantown Glass Works, Inc., in West Virginia.
What we have are not really collector quality items, as such.
But they are precious to us because two sets of grandparents assembled
various sets from soap and cereal box promotions.
