Discussion on glass by Linda Dickson, a vendor at The Antique Gallery who specializes in Early American Glass. Linda will discuss origin, history and
periods of Early American glass, composition (lead vs. soda ash), types (Early American, Carnival, Pattern, Depression and Elegant), colors (vaseline, etc.), glass companies and how to determine value.
 
Please bring a piece of your favorite glassware for Linda to discuss relative to the above topics.

homemade sandwich salads are just simply the best ever!
