Hi
Could anyone recommend a good 20th century world glass book that is a general guide rather than covering antique items only, thanks

Lesley Jackson's "20th Century Factory Glass" gives a fairly decent coverage of major makers from Europe and the States, with a bit of history included, or there's Judith Miller's "20th-Century Glass" - lots of pretty pictures, or there's Andy McConnel's "Miller's 20th-Century Glass.

I think most of us have all of these - they're the "stalwarts".  :thup:

But go and have a read of all the book reviews here - there's a section just for that.

Earth without art is just eh.
