This book is comprised of a group of 1949 Blenko catalog pages from the famous West Virginia glass maker. Along with the loose binder-punched pages we acquired was a cover letter dated September, 1949 (also punched) and signed "WH Blenko". The mailing envelope was still there too, with its "Milton, WV" postmark. We include the letter in the reproduction.

Objects include glass chips (!), vases, bottles, dinnerware, tumblers, goblets, candlesticks, miniature pieces, punch bowl and cups, ice bucket with matching pitcher and tumblers, and many more. Each object pictured has a description and price.

The cover shown is our creation - no cover was included with our original pages.

We have digitally reproduced the original catalog at an extremely high resolution, and printed the pages on a heavy gloss stock reminiscent of the original. This is not a photocopy - our methods allow us to retain an unusual image clarity and depth of detail. Some of our fine reproduction catalogs are already in museum research collections.

This reproduction catalog is intended as a permanent reference work. The true spiral binding, unlike a comb binding, allows this book to remain unharmed when left open at the desired place. Heavyweight clear vinyl covers protect the front and back.
