The Indiana Glass Society Announces its Formal Organization
Hampstead, MD (ContentDesk) September 3, 2005 -- Excitement continues to grow over last months announcement that the Indiana Glass Society, a society dedicated to the preservation, study and display of Indiana Glass, has finally been organized.The Indiana Glass Society, which made its debut on the internet in late June, continues to increase its membership as the news gets out about its formal organization. Members are already applauding the information that has been shared within the society.The IGS, which has already set up an extensive museum and library, also provides its members with an active discussion board and will soon begin creating quarterly newsletters to further assist in the exchange of ideas and information. The society hopes to present a glass show each year, which will exhibit beautiful glass collections as well as provide informative discussions. A variety of memberships are available from the society and the society is currently accepting donations to establish itself as a non-profit organization. For over a hundred years the Indiana Glass Company manufactured quality glassware out of their facility in Dunkirk, Indiana.
Initially known as the Beatty-Brady Glass Company, then as Factory #1 of the National Glass Company and finally as the Indiana Glass Company, this facility manufactured an enormous variety of both utilitarian and decorative glass products. Prior to the facility closure in 2002 hundreds of glass patterns were designed, manufactured and distributed from this one facility. Until now, there has been no formal organization, club or society which has directly associated itself with this legacy.Because of the longevity of the Indiana Glass Company, they produced a myriad of Early American Pattern Glass, Depression Glass, Contemporary Glass, Modern Glass and Carnival Glass. To celebrate their initiation, the IGS is offering, directly through their website, discounted memberships to all glass enthusiasts who want to join."It's about time" and "long overdue" has been the reaction from many collectors who have heard the news and joined the IGS. "I love old Indiana glass and am thrilled that a club is developing.
I have a feeling it will help us identify some previously unknown items." states Jo Davis, Administrator of the Depression Era Elegant and Everyday Glass Discussion Board. Craig Schenning, Organizer of the IGS, sums it up this way, "The quality and beauty of Indiana Glass has long been overlooked. We feel that the Indiana Glass Company of Dunkirk, Indiana played a significant role in American industrial history, especially when it came to producing useful and affordable glassware for the average home. We are certain that anyone who enjoys collecting Indiana Glass, or glass of any kind, will enjoy being a part of this new community."
