Abstract |
From 1927 to 1999 several generations of the Clevenger family and an ever-changing cast of itinerant glass workers made blown-molded, free-blown & even pressed glassware in the styles made in American shops decades earlier. Collectors of early American glass, and especially those who collect bottles & flasks, need to study the copious details presented here about 3/4s of a century of glass production from this small factory in southern New Jersey.
