c.1937 Catalog
Blenko Glass
Includes Williamsburg
All Pieces Have Prices
This is a pretty early Blenko catalog from the famous West Virginia glass maker, with some pieces not seen in our early 40's catalogs. Earlier, we had been guessing the date as 1935, but are now dating it as c.1937.
Many thanks to the current president of the Blenko Collectors Society for her information about Blenko's not having obtained the contract to produce Williamsburg reproductions until 1936. Hence the catalog would likely have been produced after the 1936 contract date, as it offers a number of these reproduction pieces.
Objects include vases, bottles, dinnerware, tumblers, goblets, candlesticks, miniature pieces, and many more, Each object pictured has a description and price. There is a full page of Williamsburg pieces.

We have digitally reproduced and restored our original catalog at an extremely high resolution, and printed the pages on a heavy gloss stock. This is not a photocopy - our methods allow us to retain an unusual image clarity and depth of detail. Any colors are daylight-corrected. Some of our fine reproduction catalogs are already in museum research collections.
This reproduction catalog is meant to be a permanent reference. Its true spiral binding, unlike a comb binding, allows this book to remain unharmed when left open at the desired place. The front and back covers are printed on heavy marbled cover stock, protected by sturdy clear vinyl outer covers. A wonderful and unusual gift for yourself or someone special.
