These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection.

I've got the second Hadjamach, but I'm really not fond of it at all. The index is useless (I actually started trying to rewrite my own while trying to get through it as my holiday reading once) and much of the info. on the area I'm interested in is plain wrong, which does not inspire my confidence. 
I've found the small illustration of the page from the catalogue of Gay glass is about the only thing in it I've ever used, looked at or needed. It's expensive too.
If you want a look at it, try to find it in a library.

Geoffrey Beard's "International Modern Glass" is one that might interest you, if your areas so far have been Wfs and Scandi, it might be Studio glass and retro stuff that floats your boat. It was published in '76.
I think we have a stored archive of book reviews folk have done here, don't we?

We do.  ;D

I'm glad you have finally found us, glass is much more fun when you've got other glassie folk to share it with. :)
Cheers, Sue M. (she/her)

Earth without art is just eh.

There is also a raft of free reference resources online. The board's owner Angela Bowey provides several as follows, which might be of interest to you:

Glass Encyclopedia http://www.glassencyclopedia.com/
Glass Museum On Line http://theglassmuseum.com/
Specialist Books on Glass http://www.book-seek.com/
Glass Links http://www.theglassmuseum.com/links.htm

And Angela's (newish) glass blog is here http://glassnewsletter.blogspot.co.uk/

You will also find further resources in my sig block at the foot of this post, and in the sig blocks of various other members.

Hope this helps.  8)
