Rainbow Art Glass--decorating company catalog reprints

Description: The Rainbow Art Glass Company: The Early Years from Decorating Company to Glass Manufacturer. This is Monograph No. 64 in the glass study series of the West Virginia Museum of American Glass, Ltd. Includes a brief history of the early years of this popular Huntington, West Virginia, company, beginning in 1947. Initially the firm acted as a decorating company, offering hand painted decorations, stains, and other treatments on blanks made by Fenton, Paden City, the United States Glass Company, Indiana, and many others. Soon some hand blown pieces were added to the line and by the early 1960s, Rainbow turned to the manufacture of glassware exclusively. This monograph, heavily illustrated with advertisements and original catalog materials, investigates this transitional period in detail, illuminating a previously unknown aspect of Rainbow's history. Written & compiled by Tom Felt. 37 pages, fully illustrated. Domestic postage is $4.00 for the first publication, $1.00 for each additional publication. For overseas shipping costs, please contact the seller. This small work is a part of a much larger project to place glass information not in archival storage boxes but in the hands of students, collectors, and dealers in glass. Only by sharing can we make the necessary leaps in learning, as we all bring some piece of the puzzle. The West Virginia Museum of American Glass (WVMAG), a non-profit organization, is committed to sharing glass information and from that conviction this Monograph Series was born. The WVMAG monographs address glass topics that yet lack the wide interest to make publishing a book commercially successful or that we do not yet know enough to commit to the more permanent form of a book. WVMAG's photocopied monographs are endeavors in seed planting by providing information on topics that may not have been previously readily available that other researchers can draw upon in formulating their own work. If you are a member of WVMAG (at the $35.00 or above level), you will receive a $4.00 refund from the price of this monograph after payment has been made. The refund will be deposited in your PayPal account. (Discount applies only to the first copy of each monograph; subsequent copies of the same title must be purchased at regular price.)

Membership benefits include a subscription to our acclaimed quarterly magazine, All About Glass. About the West Virginia Museum of American Glass, Ltd. (WVMAG) The West Virginia Museum of American Glass, Ltd. is a non-profit museum with a mission to share the diverse and rich heritage of glass as a product and historical object as well as telling of the lives of glass workers, their families and communities, and of the tools and machines they used in glass houses. WVMAG, Ltd. is located in Weston, West Virginia. The Museum includes representative samples of all glass products...from bottles to lightening rod balls, from telegraph insulators to glass used in automobiles, from pressed to blown tableware. We preserve the history of the places and people who made these products. Our Museum examines the rich history of some of America's most famous glass factories, while at the same time carefully understanding the impact that the hundreds of smaller and often time forgotten glass houses made on the history of the glass industry. The WVMAG displays many of the diverse and beautiful objects produced by factories during the past century. The museum attempts to compare and contrast similar pieces produced by once competing companies. No other public collection offers such contrasts on a large scale.
