This listing is for a vintage hardcover book, entitled Elegant Glassware of the Depression Era. The book was written by Gene Florence. The book lists the copyright as 1983. This book has 160 pages. The foreword of the book says: ‘Collecting of quality glassware of the Depression Era has been a gradual trend of several years…. ‘Elegant glassware’ as defined in this book, refers to the mainly hand worked and etched glassware that was sold in the department stores and jewelry stores during the Depression era through the 1950’s as opposed to the dime store and give away glass that is know as Depression glass.’ He then continues on to say that this is the first attempt ever to corral all these types of glassware into one book, and that this is a book overviewing the broad spectrum of ‘Elegant glassware’ from decades past. This book is filled with beautiful high quality color and black and white photographs. The book has an index by company, as well as a regular index.
This book does not have a dust jacket, and I do not believe that the book was originally produced with a dust jacket. This book does not look like it was read, or opened much. However, the surface of the book has wear to it. There is some color loss on the surface of the book cover. The corners of the book are slightly bumped. There is a shallow nick in the top edge of the book cover. There is some wear and color loss to the outside edges of the book cover. The inside front and back page inside the book look slightly discolored. Please note that this book has a musty smell to it. Please take note of this, and do not bid if it is a concern.
