Summary

Paden City Glass Manufacturing Company of Paden City, West Virginia, manufactured popular etched tableware in over 20 different colors between 1916 and 1951. More than 1,500 color photographs highlight the many patterns produced by the company. The book contains 50 different etchings done by Paden City, as well as patterns and specialty items. Each etching and pattern is accompanied by a current collector value, making this the first value guide ever to be published by Collector Books on Paden City glass. The authors' ground-breaking research features factory drawings, pages from an Edward Paul catalog of the World War II years containing cologne sets previously not identified as Paden City, new information about etchings and colors, and rarities.
