HEISEY GLASS FORMULAS - And More

From the papers of Emmet E. Olson, Heisey Chemist

Presented by The West Virginia Museum of American Glass in partnership with the Ruby Stain Museum Edited by Neila Bredehoft

This specific work within the Monograph series is an amazing story of records surviving when so many others were destroyed long ago. It is the insight of the Ruby Stain Museum to acquire and preserve those records. And this small work is a wonderful story of two small museums joining together to publish and share these shards of glass history.
