1957 Viking Glass Catalog

Pieces from Yesteryear

24 Vintage Designs from 1901 and Later

Molded, Folded, Cut, & Etched

This is a rarely encountered 1957 Viking Glass catalog from the well-known Martinsville, West Virginia glass maker. Hundreds of pieces are pictured, each with dimensions, available sizes, and Viking style number. Among the many pieces are vases, epergnes, baskets, bowls, dinnerware, relish dishes, candy boxes, tumblers, goblets, candlesticks, candelabra, figurines, pitchers, decanters, bottles, punch glasses and sets, perfume bottles, compotes, sauce and jam dishes with ladles, paperweights, ashtray sets and many other smoking accessories, and much more.

While many of the designs are continued from the 1956 line, the second half of this 31-page 1957 catalog demonstrates a new design direction - folded and shaped "space-age" pieces.

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.

A wonderful and unusual gift for yourself or someone special.
